Volunteering with Denham Parish Council
Denham Parish Council are warmly inviting volunteers to come and help at our social events. We have events which operate on a monthly basis – Memory Cafe, once a month on a Friday (11am-2pm) and Social and Bingo, once a month on a Sunday (3pm-5pm). We also hold many one-off events, for example we are planning a Christmas event on Friday 4th December at 6-7pm for which we need help. It’s a rewarding experience and a great way to meet new people and contribute to the community. If you are able to help at one of these, we would be delighted to hear from you – please contact us at enquiries@denhambucks-pc.gov.uk

Knighton Way Playground
For health and safety reasons the three wooden play equipments have been removed. We are looking into replacing these. We are sourcing prices to replace them but this may not happen until next year due to budget.
Digital Switchover Update
Denham Parish Council are asking residents to please look out for elderly relatives, friends and neighbours who may need help with the public switched telephone network (PSTN) particularly if they are landline dependent and/or have a care alarm, health pendant, security alarm or other connected device that uses the telephone line.
Communications providers in the UK are replacing the technology they use to provide fixed telephone networks (landlines). For most customers, the upgrade is expected to be complete by January 2027.
