Due to the coronavirus pandemic it is not possible for the Parish Council to meet as it normally would. To enable the Council to conduct its business legislation (below) has been introduced which allow the Parish Council to hold meetings online.

The Parish Council will be holding its meetings using Zoom.

Free software (availiable for Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS and Android), and will allow the public (up to 100 participants) to view the meeting live.  You can also attend the meeting by telephone (details here)

You are encouraged to familiarise yourself with the software before the meeting as we will not be able to provide technical support during the meeting. You could  contact a friend or relative to test your camera, microphone and speakers work  correctly.

Please note that the meetings may be recorded and made availiable online.

Parish Councillors must be able to be heard and seen, the public only need to be able to be heard and seen (if possible) if they wish to participate during the public session at the start of the meeting. The public’s microphones and video will be turned off for the remainder of the meeting.
