What We Do

Environmental Health Services at Castle Point Borough Council is relatively small, but we cover a wide range of duties.

The section is split into two separate teams to help meet the demands of the service; these are the Commercial team and the Domestic team . Both teams are staffed with professionally qualified Environmental Health Officers and are supported by the dedicated administration support team.

There are approximately 2000 annual service requests between the two teams covering the whole remit of Environmental Health.
