Which Organisation do I need?

Listed below is a summary of the facilities and services provided by Bracknell Town Council, Bracknell Forest Council and Silva Homes. These organisations work closely together to try to ensure local residents receive as seamless a service as possible. This is sometimes difficult given the complexity of the land holding and environmental responsibilities of the organisations.

Regrettably on occasions people may feel they are passed backwards and forwards between the Town Council, Borough Council and Silva Homes. This may be avoided if callers are very specific about their query and the geographical area they are interested in.
