As 2025 draws to a close, the BHRA thoughts are now turning to 2026 and some very important changes within our community. Firstly, you may be aware that our local Councillor Sophie Dunbar who has recently announced her move to the Biggin Hill Conservative team, joining forces with Philip Hatch for the upcoming local elections due to be held on 7th May 2026. We will also be saying goodbye to our Biggin Hill Independent Councillor Melanie Stevens who will be retiring after 12 years of service and we thank her for all her hard work on behalf of the Biggin Hill Community.
As a Residents Association, we are a non-political organisation and as such will not be able to support any party or candidate in the lead up to next years election. Notwithstanding this, individual committee members will be free to support any candidate of their choosing as a Biggin Hill resident and will do so in line with our constitution. Therefore, any activity of our committee members during this time of change, will be their personal choice and not representative of the BHRA.
We will be inviting all candidates to a Hustings at a future date, where voters can hear their views, debate policies and answer some of the questions from our Biggin Hill community.
We have an exciting time of change ahead and we look forward to working alongside our successful Councillors in the future.
