Over 140,000 people live in our district; through its natural beauty, charm and local attractions, this number trebles during the holiday seasons. We believe that it is the community as a whole that makes St Albans district an attractive, enjoyable place to live, visit and work.
To ensure the area remains an attractive place to be, we are committed to the continued well being of all our residents and visitors. Our Community Service team work hard to deliver this vision.
