Annual Meetings

There are two meetings hosted by the Parish Council which must take place on an annual basis. The Annual Parish Meeting/Assembly and the Annual Meeting of the Parish Council.


Annual Parish Meeting/Assembly

All Town and Parish Councils throughout England are required by law to hold an Annual Parish Meeting, which must take place between 1 March and the 1 June (inclusive). Meetings should not commence before 6pm and must not be held in premises used for the supply of alcohol.

The Annual Parish meeting is NOT a Parish Council Meeting, but allows the Parish Council to explain what it has accomplished in the preceding year and plans they might have for the coming year.

Electors, public and press are invited are the to hear reports from the Chairman and Local Councillors.

Annual Meeting of the Parish Council

This can also be known as the Annual General Meeting (AGM) and allows the election of key posts on the Council, such as the Chair and Vice-Chair.

It is also used to appoint committees, representatives to other bodies or review policy documents such as the risk assessment, standing orders or financial regulations.
