Let's Keep Fareham together?

July 2025

Welcome to the latest edition of Fareham Borough Council's E-panel.
It's a great way to get involved with Council consultations and it gives residents a chance to have their say.#

 

Let's Keep Fareham Together Survey 

 

All councils in England have been asked by the Government to reorganise. This means that Hampshire County Council and all the District and Borough councils, including Fareham Borough Council will be replaced over the next few years.

We are working with Gosport, Havant and Portsmouth councils on a case for a single Unitary Authority to cover all our boundaries. Some have suggested that Locks Heath, Park Gate and Sarisbury wards could be split from the Borough of Fareham and join a new Unitary Authority with Southampton and Eastleigh. 

We don't agree with this but want to know what our residents think.

Our Place, Our Future 

The Government has asked councils across England to look at how local government is organised, as they believe this will improve services and make better use of public money.

In Hampshire, Southampton, Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight, that means local councils are being asked to consider options for replacing the current

county, borough, district and unitary authority arrangements, and deciding what unitary authority boundaries would be appropriate.

 

These newly formed councils will be responsible for delivering all council services to the residents in their area.

A group of 12 of the 15 councils in our area are now working together on options for reorganisation that build on what makes our communities unique -

while making services more efficient and future-proof.

 

Now we want to hear from you. What matters most to you and your area?

 

Your views will help us shape how local councils work in future and do our best to ensure they reflect real places, priorities, and people.

Fareham Climate Change Toolkits

 

The Council has put together some information packs for our ResidentsCommunity Groups and Businesses to help them on their carbon reduction journeys.

We have tried to include information for everyone. So, it doesn't matter if you're just starting out or already a climate change champion, we hope there are some useful tips for everyone.

For any queries please message the consultation team: 

consultation@fareham.gov.uk.
