East Staffordshire Borough Council is currently seeking residents’ views on how it should prioritise its spending on services for the next year and beyond.

ESBC has launched a budget consultation to help identify which services people consider to be the most important, what they would like to see protected and where, if necessary, they would prefer any additional income to come from.

The survey can be completed online via the Council’s website, with paper copies available upon request.

The deadline for responses is Thursday 7^th August 2025.

Overview

We are pleased to inform the Parish Council that All Saints CE Academy has secured funding
for a new fencing project through School Condition Allocation (SCA) funding, made
available by the Trust.

This project is a proactive response to recent safeguarding assessments and will significantly
enhance the safety, security, and functionality of our school grounds, in line with
government expectations and current best practice.

PROPOSED DIVERSION OF PUBLIC FOOTPATH
NO 15 (PART) DENSTONE
Staffordshire County Council is currently considering an application to divert the
above public footpath. The effect of the diversion will be to extinguish the existing
section of footpath shown by a solid black line (A-B) on the map and create in its
place the footpath shown by a broken black line (C-D-E-B). This proposal will divert
the footpath from the Definitive line which passes through the garden of the house
onto a line, which has been used for over 15 years, in the adjacent field to improve
privacy and security at the property.
