Your parish council is made up of 11 elected councillors. Each works in a voluntary capacity and receives no remuneration for all of the hours they invest in their work for the community.
The council is legally obliged to appoint a clerk/responsible financial officer to carry out the affairs of the corporate body. This clerk, Mrs Laurie Eagling, is employed on a part time basis. Council also employs a part time parish assistant, to co-ordinate the Community Car Scheme and maintain our noticeboards as well as providing some other support to council initiatives, and a part time Facilities Manager for the Pavilion site, Dave Burton.
The council has also appointed 3 part time litter pickers to keep our community clean and tidy and 2 part time playground/asset inspectors to make sure that our playgrounds are safe and operating correctly.
None of these members of staff have a salary anywhere near the individual reporting threshold of £50k per annum.
Please note that the parish council does not devote any time to trade union activities and is not affiliated with any trade union.
