Future parish council meetings
Following all government guidelines in relation to the Covid-19 pandemic, all scheduled Parish Council meetings will now take place by video conference.
This will be for the Parish Councillors and will discuss parish business in the normal way, however if you would like to raise a concern or ask a question, please e-mail the clerk who will raise it on your behalf at the meeting. We will also publish a link to enable members of the public to join the meeting.
You will be able to read about the discussions and decisions in the minutes which will be posted on the parish website as normal.
Thank you for your understanding with this change in way of working – we look forward to getting back to normal face to face meetings and will keep you updated on when this will be.

FAQs:
Are all meetings of a local government body open to the public?
All meetings must be open to the public except in limited defined circumstances where the national rules require or allow the meeting to be closed to the public.
Can I film or audio-record the meeting?
Yes, councils and other local government bodies are required to allow any member of the public to take photographs, film and audio-record the proceedings, and report on all public meetings.
While no prior permission is required to carry out this activity, it is advisable that any person wishing to film or audio-record a public meeting let their local government staff know so that all necessary arrangements can be made for the public meeting.
This is important because the rules require local government bodies only to provide reasonable facilities for any member of the public to report on meetings.
These rules help any members of the press and public who want to know about, view or report the work of local government bodies. The “press” is defined in the widest terms – including traditional print media, filming crews, hyper-local journalists and bloggers.
The new national rules have increased your rights to film, audio-record, take photographs, and use social media such as tweeting and blogging to report the proceedings of all such meetings that are open to the public.
Please note there are no meetings in January and July.
