Nork Residents' Association

Welcome!

The Nork Ward falls within the boundaries of Reigate & Banstead Borough Council in the North East of Surrey. The Nork Residents’ Association was formed in 1925. Its objects are to:

"To advance and protect the interests of the residents and the amenities of the district"

"The Association shall be non-sectarian and non-party political".

The Association also believes that:

"National party politics is best left out of local government"

The Association Committee meets each month to take up member’s concerns and consider planning issues. The Association publishes the Nork Quarterly, a well-regarded quarterly magazine and holds an Annual General Meeting for our sizeable and ever increasing membership.

We currently hold all three Borough Council seats in the ward and our Residents' Association County Councillor and Residents' Association Councillors from the Tattenhams Ward, are a significant group within Council.

The Association is a member of
the Banstead District Federation of Residents Associations

Enjoy a happy and safe Christmas and New Year.
Surrey Police recommend:

AT HOME

• DON'T leave presents under the Christmas tree in view of a window. Hide them safely until Christmas morning.

• SECURITY MARK expensive presents with a forensic marking product. Keep an inventory on a property registration website such as www.immobilise.com.

• DISPOSE of Christmas gift packaging carefully. Empty boxes left outside advertise to thieves what they can find inside.

GOING AWAY OVER THE FESTIVE PERIOD?

• Get a neighbour or Neighbourhood Watch to watch your house.

• Do not put your holiday details on social networking sites.

• Make your house look occupied by using automatic timer switches to control interior lights, radios or TVs. Cancel milk and newspapers.

• Remember to lock all doors and windows. Set your burglar alarm.

One third the way through the year and I have done over 100 engagements despite a quiet August, Annual General Meetings, opening ceremonies. publicity visits, performances by local musicians and choirs, welcomes to visitors, visits to other Boroughs, civic services, presenting awards, chairing meetings, meeting the public and giving speeches, all important in their way and all enjoyable. I have met a host of wonderful people, particularly volunteers who are giving so much of their time to helping our community as whole. more

All volunteers will be fully trained by SCC in operating the library including the soon to be installed self-service system. more.
