Questions about the Parish Council
Can I attend a Council meeting?
Members of the public are always welcome at Parish Council meetings with the exception of the staffing committee. If you want to attend, you are reminded that after the public question time at the beginning of the meeting, there follows a formal meeting of the Council when members of the public can only speak at the invitation of the Chairman.
