Councillors
The Council has thirteen members who serve the community voluntarily. Together all councillors have collective responsibility for Parish Council management. The Council is elected every four years. Following the Election on 4th May 2017, 8 councillors were elected which left 5 vacancies.  These vacancies were filled by co-opted Councillors at the Annual Council meeting on 15th May 2017. Further vacancies have been replaced by co-opted members except for the Bowerhill vacancy, which now stands vacant until the next election which is currently planned for 6th May 2021.
