Parish Council Meetings 

The Parish Council meets on the third Tuesday of the month (except August and December unless required) at 7pm in the Village Hall.  The Chairman is Councillor Michael Harris.  

The meeting is open to the public and a short period is set aside at the beginning of each meeting to enable members of the public to make presentments.  Please note that members of the public cannot speak at Parish Council meetings other than in the public presentment period.    

As the first tier of local government, the Parish Council has the ability to consider any matter in which it has a statutory power to act with discussion of parish and community affairs.  In order to represent the local community to outside bodies, it receives regular reports from County and District Councillors and its own Committees.   Information from statutory and non-statutory organisations, together with the general public, aids the Council in its decision making.  The Parish Council then acts to deliver services and improve the community's quality of life.

Annual Parish Meeting 

The Annual Parish Meeting is always held on the fourth Tuesday of April, unless it is an election year when it may be earlier.

By law every English Parish must have an Annual Parish Meeting which consists of the local government electors registered for the area for which it is held.  

Although convened by the Parish Council it is NOT a Parish Council meeting.  It is an opportunity for the Parish Council, organisations and charities within the village to report on their activities during the year.  It also affords residents the opportunity to ask questions and provide feedback to these groups.  It differs from a Parish Council meeting as most resolutions are advisory only and not binding upon the Parish Council.
