Your Parish Councillors

Parish Council elections are normally held every four years and councillors will hold their seats until they resign or otherwise vacate the seat. To become a member you must be an elector over 18 years of age and have lived in the Parish (or within three miles of it) or hold your principal place of work in the Parish during the whole of the twelve months prior to candidate nomination. Full details of eligibility are available at the Parish Centre. 15 councillors make up the council and are divided into three wards according to population, Bussage (7), Hill (6) and Valley (2).

Our present councillors are shown below by ward with details of their committee membership, individual roles and a link to their Declaration of Pecuniary Interests (DPI).
