Crawley community

These links take you straight to the organisations themselves, so you always get their latest information. We do not copy posts from community groups or news sites; follow the links to read them in full.

Council and public services

Crawley has two councils. Crawley Borough Council looks after bins and recycling, council tax, housing, planning, parks and the town's leisure centres. West Sussex County Council looks after roads, on-street parking, libraries, schools and social care. There is no town or parish council.

• Crawley Borough Council: councillors, services and the council's events.
• West Sussex County Council: roads and transport, libraries, schools and parking.
• Find your MP: UK Parliament's search for the MP for Crawley.

Not sure where to start? A missed bin collection goes to the borough council; a pothole or a broken street light goes to the county council.

Culture and heritage

• Crawley Museum: the town's story from the Iron Age to the new town, with talks and family events.
• The Hawth: Crawley's theatre, with drama, comedy, music, dance and the Christmas pantomime.

Something missing?

If you run a community group, charity or public service in Crawley and would like a link here, use our contact form. You can also submit a listing for a business or venue. We add groups once we can see their own website or public page, and we never charge for a community link.

About these links

We check every link on this page when we add it, and again whenever we update the page. Councils and groups sometimes move their pages; if a link stops working, tell us and we will put it right. For anything urgent, such as a road hazard or a missed collection, contact the council directly rather than through us.
