Welcome to the Hilton Parish Council website
Hilton Parish Council is here to serve our community. As an organisation we form part of your local government and must adhere to local government policies. Councillors are drawn from the parish and offer their time, unpaid, as elected representatives.
We have many functions but overall our prime objective is to manage, improve and preserve our village for the good of all.
Hilton is a unique community and a very desirable place to live, however we are facing many pressures. Your Parish Council is well placed to represent our community and work with Huntingdonshire District Council, Cambridgeshire County Council and National Government plus other authorities such as the Police, Highways England and transport groups to achieve the best for our community.

Cambridgeshire County Council Annual Travel to Work Survey
Employees can win a £50 Amazon voucher if they take part in Cambridgeshire County Council’s annual travel to work survey.
The survey helps Smart Journeys (a project co-led by the council which supports the delivery of sustainable travel) understand how residents across the county are travelling to work and how many days they are now working from home in a post-pandemic environment.
The survey asks employees travelling in and around Cambridgeshire how they travel to work during a typical one week period. The closing date to complete it was due to be Sunday, 24 October but has now been extended for another week to last until 31 October.
The survey takes approximately five minutes to complete and a summary of the results will be available for participants to download after the closing date. Data provided will also be used by Smart Journeys to help influence future transport decisions, include public transport improvements across the county.
The survey will also highlight a workplace grant scheme to help employers improve cycle security which may be a barrier to staff cycling to work. The scheme has been launched by the Greater Cambridge Partnership and is part of their programme of work to support sustainable modes of travel and reduce car use.
