Brentwood Borough Council has revealed details of an exciting line up of entertainment and activities to celebrate the historic coronation of His Majesty King Charles III. Taking place at King George’s Playing Fields on Monday 8 May from 12 - 5pm, our Coronation Festival will bring communities together in volunteering initiatives and hopes to create a legacy from the Coronation weekend.

Brentwood Borough Council has submitted the Draft Community Infrastructure Levy Charging Schedule to the Planning Inspectorate for independent examination following approval by councillors at a meeting of the Policy, Resources and Economic Development Committee earlier this month (8 March).

Residents across the borough are invited to attend Gibraltar House on Wednesday 29 March from 10am to 4pm to hear about the range of community and fun activities available to help people physically and mentally.

The chargers can be located on all major charging apps and maps.

The annual Brentwood Art Trail is a great way to enjoy the artwork of talented local artists, exhibiting in June in a wide variety of venues in the borough.
