New parking plans for Park Road West

Many City workers park their cars all day round the West Park and then walk the rest of the way to work. That's fine in most areas but it causes problems outside the West Park Hospital. Not only are visitors to the hospital frequently inconvenienced but many West Park users have raised concerns about a lack of parking near to the popular West Park Tea Rooms and the play area. Plans have now been submitted to install time limited parking outside the hospital to benefit hospital visitors, Tea Room customers and play area users alike.

100 Today: Many, Many, Many Happy Returns!

It is a great pleasure to share in the celebrations of the people of Folkestone, and especially for someone who has lived here so long. The Mayoress and I were invited by the family of Lillian, known as Mary, to share the joy of her 100th birthday. I'm not sure who was more surprised when we met: Mary for the fact that the Mayor was kneeling at her feet to wish her a Happy Birthday, or us as we walked in to see her in full Salvation Army uniform which is still in good condition after 80 years!
