Share your views on parking and road safety in Sunninghill


We're asking for your views on proposed changes to roads and parking to tackle congestion in Sunninghill, that aim to improve access to the High Street and make the area safer for pedestrians including local school children.


Our proposals reflect your concerns about dangerously parked vehicles and traffic on the High Street during school drop off and pick up times and include a combination of additional parking restrictions, road layout changes, a new one-way system and a new parking permit scheme for people who live close to and own businesses on the High Street.


View the proposal drawings and have your say by 7 March on our RBWM Together page

Become a Windsor Welcome Ambassador


Visit Windsor are looking for new volunteers to welcome visitors to Windsor town centre and help them make the most of their visit.


By volunteering as little as three hours of your time between 9am and 3pm on Fridays and weekends between April and this September, you could play a vital role in representing our vibrant communities, helping local businesses and supporting Windsor’s reputation as a must-visit destination!


Windsor receives thousands of visitors every day, and our volunteers been an active part of our service since 2014. So if you’re someone who loves Windsor and is interested in joining our team, please apply on the My Royal Borough website by Sunday 9 March

Help shape the future of pharmacy services


We want to hear your experiences to inform the Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment that outlines how local pharmacies serve our communities. A few minutes of your time is important to help us understand how pharmacies are currently used across the borough, as well as identify gaps in the services that you need.


Your feedback will be used to draft an Assessment, that we’ll consult on later this year to help the NHS and local authorities to decide on changes to current services and whether new pharmacies are required.


Have your say by visiting our RBWM Together page by Sunday 9 March. If you know someone who is not able to complete the survey online, please encourage them to take part by asking for help at their local library.
