Meet your Parish Councillors and Parish Clerk<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n

Your Parish Council is made up of local volunteers who bring a range of skills and experience to the community. As a non\u2011political body, councillors work together to address parish needs and represent residents. The council can have up to nine members.<\/span><\/p>\n

They are supported by the Parish Clerk, who manages day\u2011to\u2011day administration, communication, and ensures the council operates in line with legal and procedural requirements.<\/span><\/p>\n
