Update on flag flying across the district
Wednesday, October 15, 2025
We'd like to update everyone on our recent survey about flag flying.
Thank you to everyone who took part in our survey about the flags that have been popping up in our district. We’ve received a large number of responses.
There are a wide range of views and some strong feelings. So now we’re going to take some time to carefully work through everything you’ve shared with us.
We really appreciate your input. As we reflect on the feedback, we’re mindful of the importance of community, respect, and kindness in how we move forward together.
Cllr Jack Hemingway
Deputy Leader of Wakefield Council

We’ll be in touch soon to share what we’ll be doing next.
