Councillor Caroline Rackham

07/05/2026

Today you get to vote for the people who makes decisions about:
Social Care
How rubbish is processed
Education
Public Transport
Roads
and more...
I really, really don't want to split the Waterside and the New Forest but I'm keen to talk about the things above too. Those services have been struggling for a while and we badly need a change to start making things better.
If you're from North Totton or from Netley Marsh and you want change too, then vote for me - Caroline Rackham.

I've been out today testing the Bartley Water - looking good for now which is great to hear (although we're still waiting for the ecoli results. Lots of rivers across the Forest are in trouble even now though so if you'd like to help let me know and I'll PM the contacts for you to join.

Watch my video comments on Local Government Reforms coming our way. We're going to need a strong, experienced voice to keep our local identity and our rural character.

Totton and Eling are hoping to apply for Town of Culture, a nationwide programme that gives money to towns to improve their profile and expand the cultural activities they offer. If you are interested please get in touch. Totton and Eling have a great community spirit and a heritage which I think is under-stated so it would be fantastic to involve as many people as possible to make it a really strong bid.
