Witnesses are being asked to come forward by police after damage was caused to The Redhill Youth Association Hall.

The hall situated by the pedestrian underpass between Marketfield Way and Redstone Hill.
Sometime between Thursday 6th and Sunday 9th March people climbed all over the building causing damage to the roof.
Safety is also a factor with the danger of culprits falling off or through the roof.

Flooded homes won’t have to pay council tax for three months under a new plan drawn up by Surrey County Council.

2,000 homes are covered by the scheme which will cost the county council around £750,000 and will save the flood victims around £500 on their annual bill.

It’s not certain how much money Surrey will actually get from the central government but much of this sum will be recouped from the Government’s £4 million fund to help flooded families which will be shared out across the country.

A missing Crawley girl has been found safe and unharmed.
