Under the Localism Act neighbourhood forums are community groups that are designated to take forward neighbourhood planning in areas without parish councils.
The DNF has been recognised by SHBC as the forum for the Deepcut Area, this is especially important on account of the PRB (Mindenhurst) development, see the
Mindenhurst Development( above).
Farnborough Airport Concerns
Farnborough Airport Ltd (FAL) are lodging an appeal in respect of their November 2025 Planning Application (see below) to the Government's Planning Inspectorate on the grounds of non-determination.
This is so they can speed up their application, see the Press Release for the full explanation.
Farnborough Airport have released a letter from their CEO Simon Geere describing their latest planning application which you can see
here (pdf).
If you have any complaints or concerns about aircraft noise, the frequency and timing of flights, please contact
the Society as we have a representative on the Farnborough Airport Consultative Committee (FACC)
and on the Quiet Flying Programme working group of FACC. We are in a position to be able to make representations on your behalf and as a Society we carry more weight than an individual does.
To contact us, email:

New Frimley Park Hospital Site Selection Report
Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust have recently set out why they propose to build on part of the land owned by Frimley Fuel Allotments in more detail.
Their new site selection report, published on our website, includes the criteria used to assess every site, the reasoning behind each decision, and the scores given.
The Trust carried out a thorough site selection process with rigorous local and national governance.
Eighteen potential sites were assessed against a consistent set of criteria.
The Trust’s assessment has been tested and re-tested: by an independent peer review in 2024, by a joint reappraisal with the national programme in 2025 that deliberately reintroduced previously excluded sites, and by a further independent review. Each process reached the same conclusion.
This level of detail we have published reflects the significance of the choices ahead, and we believe it’s important to build confidence in the process and not just the outcome.
Have your Say
Have you had your say on the new Frimley Park Hospital proposal via our survey yet?
Your feedback is an important part of the engagement process and will help shape the future of healthcare in our communities.
If you have thoughts, questions or concerns, please take a few minutes to complete the survey
and make your voice count. Please encourage your colleagues, friends and family as well. The survey ends 12th October 2026.

12/07/2026 - Frimley Green Carnival 2026
Held on the 12th July, the 2026 Frimley Green Carnival was a great success. It was a warm and sunny day, with a slight breeze which made it almost perfect weather for the Carnival.
There was a large and enthusiastic crowd, a tremendous Carnival Procession which this year was mostly walking groups.
The procession was headed up by two people carrying the Frimley Green Carnival Banner, followed by a blue MG carrying the Mayor of Surrey Heath, Councillor Cliff Betton. This was followed by a number by schools,
dancing and gymnastic groups, charitable organizations, decorated scooters amongst others.
There were events in the central arena throughout the day with many stalls on the Green including the Society's stall.
For a more detailed account along with photos of the Carnival, see the Frimley Green Carnival 2026.
