🕯️ SERVICE OF REMEMBRANCE🕯️

Lest We Forget

St Andrew’s Church, Shifnal, warmly invites you to join us for our Service of Remembrance on Sunday 8th November 2026 at 10:55am.

Together, we will pause to remember and honour all those who gave their lives in the service of our country, those who served, and all those who continue to make sacrifices for our freedom.

We come together in gratitude, reflection and prayer, united in remembrance of the fallen and in support of all those affected by conflict.

“At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.”

We will remember them.

COMMUNITY MEETING – FRIDAY 30th OCTOBER at 7.00PM, SHIFNAL VILLAGE HALL

Earlier this summer, Shifnal councillors met with our MP, Mark Pritchard, and agreed with him to fight the continued overdevelopment of Shifnal.

Shifnal has already absorbed exceptional levels of growth, with our population increasing by around 43% between the 2011 and 2021 censuses. Mark agreed with the Council, there comes a point when overdevelopment risks fundamentally changing the character and uniqueness of Shifnal, while also adding further pressure to our roads, schools, health services, and infrastructure.

Mark said he would call a community meeting once more details were known about the emerging Local Plan, and that meeting will now take place on Friday 30th October at 7.00pm at Shifnal Village Hall.

This Town Council has not stood on the sidelines when Shifnal’s future has been debated. During the previous Local Plan process, we made substantial representations and engaged experienced professional planning consultants to put Shifnal’s case directly into the Local Plan examination process before the Planning Inspectors. We did that because we believed then, as we do now, that Shifnal must have a strong and properly informed voice when decisions are being made about where thousands of new homes should go. Shifnal is an attractive target for developers, and we must be ready to defend sensible, sustainable planning and resist development that is not supported by the infrastructure our community needs.

We are glad our local MP, Mark Pritchard, is supporting Shifnal residents in this endeavour.
