Facilities Management for Town & Parish Councils

At Severnside Facilities & Maintenance, we understand that Town and Parish Councils carry a unique responsibility: maintaining safe, compliant, and welcoming community buildings and spaces while ensuring best value for public money. Our facilities management services are designed and overseen by a CiLCA-qualified professional, bringing first-hand knowledge of council governance and statutory responsibilities.
