Dear West Horsley Residents,

We would appreciate your help in shaping the future of housing in our village. Whether that is young people looking for their first home, older residents wishing to downsize, or families needing more space, understanding these needs is vital for our community. 

West Horsley Parish Council and Guildford Borough Council have commissioned Surrey Community Action, a charity supporting rural communities, to carry out an independent Housing Needs Survey. The results will help us plan for local housing needs and may also provide information for future planning applications.

A paper copy of the survey, with a reply paid envelope, is being delivered to every property in West Horsley, however, for many people, the easiest and quickest way to respond will be to complete the online survey using the link above. 

The questionnaire has two parts:

• Part One is for everyone and asks for your views on housing in the parish

• Part Two is for anyone who is likely to have a housing need in the next five years

If you require assistance returning your survey, please call the Deputy Clerk on 01483 901905 or send an email to deputyclerk@westhorsley-pc.gov.uk and we will make arrangements to collect your sealed envelope for posting to Surrey Community Action.

Do you know someone who would like to return to the parish? Perhaps friends who work here but now live elsewhere, or family members who moved away because they couldn’t afford to stay? If so, we’d like to hear from them too. Please ask them to complete the survey online, or to request a paper copy they can either email nicolad@surreyca.org.uk or call 01483 447141.

All responses are confidential to Surrey Community Action, and an anonymised report will be provided to the Parish Council.

The survey closes on Monday 13 July 2026.

Thank you for taking part and helping us plan for a thriving community.



West Horsley Parish Council
