The Parish Council now has a digital mailing list to help keep residents informed about important village news, events and urgent updates.
You might have noticed that our website is currently a little outdated. Shirley Cunningham did a fantastic job looking after the website for many years and we would now welcome a new volunteer to help maintain the community site.
Councillors will be finalising the budget for the coming year at the January meeting on 19th January. Our other meeting dates are 16th March, 11th May (Annual Parish Meeting and Annual Meeting of the Parish Council) 6th July, 14th September & 16th November.
We have recently heard that the mayoral elections planned for May 2026 have been postponed until 2028. We do not yet know what will happen with the County Council elections which were also due in 2026.
Emergencies can happen in any form and at any time (day or night). Getting prepared and having a plan in advance means that you can deal with the emergency if it does happen.
Dates of Meetings in 2026
We next meet on Monday 10th November at 7.30pm. Residents are welcome to join us and can raise issues during the public part of the meeting which is now near the beginning of the agenda.
