Would you like to find out more about being a Parish Councillor?
The National Association of Local Council (NALC) has released a short video starring ‘viral sensation’, Jackie Weaver, to help get more people involved in local (parish and town) councils.
#MakeAChange | The Unusual Suspects (ft. Jackie Weaver) – YouTube
The video raises the importance of everyone having a stake in their community and getting involved in their local council. Local councils exist and flourish thanks to the commitments of over 100,000 councillors, clerks, and council staff.
The Parish Council is keen to welcome new members from our community, from all backgrounds, and with a variety of experiences, to help to make the council more representative of its community.
