Are you passionate about our village? Would you like to become a parish councillor?

Following the May 2025 election, there is a vacancy remaining on the parish council which we will seek to fill via co-option. The appointed person will be eligible to hold the post for the four-year term until the next election in May 2029.

If you are passionate about helping our community, and have plenty of spare time (the estimate is that on average a parish councillor contributes 3+ hours per week) to volunteer (members receive no renumeration or financial allowances for their work), please do get in touch.

You are welcome to talk to the clerk or any serving councillor to get more information and members of the public are welcome to attend all our council and committee meetings where you would gain an understanding of all the current affairs being managed.  You may also like to read the documents below, which provide a little more information about what is involved and who is qualified to stand:

You can find out lots of information on whether you are eligible to stand at via this link to the Electoral Commision webpage: Qualifications and disqualifications for standing for election | Electoral Commission

The corporate body of the parish council also acts as Sole Trustee to two local charities, so you may also like to read:

We look forward to hearing from you.
