A parish council is a local authority that makes decisions on behalf of the people in the parish. ... By becoming a parish councillor you become someone your community will look to for help, guidance and support - a community leader with the power to influence decisions for the benefit of the people you serve.

 

What powers do parish councils have?

They have a wide range of powers which essentially related to local matters, such as looking after community buildings, open spaces, play areas, street lighting, bus shelters, car parks and much more.


We have casual vacancies for two Parish Councillors.
