Interested in becoming a councillor

Elections take place every four years. The timescales, advertising and process of elections is governed by a statutory procedure. All candidates have to be proposed and seconded by electors of the parish.

If an existing councillors post becomes vacant the vacancy is advertised for a fixed period of time and, unless ten electors have requested a poll, the vacancy is filled by co-option at a subsequent council meeting.

Further information can be obtained from the National Association of Local Councils (NALC)
