All residents are welcome to attend to hear about what has been happening in the Parish in the last year (or two, because last year’s meeting was a covid casualty).

What’s it all about? Here are some frequently asked questions:

What is an Annual Parish Meeting? All Town and Parish Councils throughout England are required by law to hold an Annual Parish Meeting, which must take place between 1 March and the 1 June.

What is the purpose of the Annual Parish Meeting? To give the Parish Council, and other local organisations an opportunity to let local residents know what they have been doing over the past year. The meeting is also an opportunity for electors to have a say on anything they consider valuable to the people of the Parish.

Who can attend the meeting? Electors of the Parish. It is not a meeting of the Parish Council. Anyone is welcome to attend the meeting however, only registered electors of the parish may speak and vote during the meeting.

How long will the meeting last? The length of the meeting is dependent on the number of electors present, the number of questions asked and the discussion that is raised. This year’s meeting cannot exceed 1 hour because a Parish Council meeting follows it.
