Budget

The Parish Council’s budget is reviewed and prepared annually to ensure that sufficient funds are available to deliver services, maintain assets, and support the priorities of the Council and local community.

The budgeting process includes consideration of anticipated expenditure, ongoing commitments, future projects, and expected income. Draft budget proposals are reviewed by the Council and considered alongside current financial information and forecast requirements before approval.

Once approved, the budget forms the basis for setting the Parish Council’s precept for the forthcoming financial year. Expenditure throughout the year is monitored regularly against the approved budget to ensure effective financial management and accountability.

The approved budget for the financial year 2026–2027 is set out below.
