Meet your Parish Councillors.
Every four years, Parish Councils are required to hold an election for membership of the Council. This is the village’s opportunity to make changes, should they wish, to how the Parish Council is run.
Once elected, Parish Councillors usually sit on the Council for a maximum of four years. If they then wish to stay in the post they must stand for re-election. Villagers are actively encouraged to apply to join the Parish Council, and it is always good to welcome new members. Ideally, all age groups and a wide demographic should be represented on a Council.
A Parish Council is the local authority that makes decisions on behalf of the people in the Parish and makes representations on their behalf to other bodies (e.g. on planning matters). As it is the authority closest to the people, the Parish Council is invariably the first place people will go with concerns or ideas. For this reason, it is a vital part of any community.
