Parish Councillors

The Parish Council consists of 13 seats and as there were 11 candidates all of them will take their place on the Council in an uncontested election (no actual voting will take place). This is quite a common procedure for many Town and Parish Councils.   The Parish Council will seek to co-opt into the vacant seats after May 2023.

Register of interests:  All councillors are obliged to declare any interests.

There were elections for County Council & Police & Crime Commissioner on Thursday 6th May 2021.
