About the Parish Council

The Council is made up of unpaid, elected councillors who serve four‑year terms and operate under a formal Code of Conduct.

Parish Council Meetings are held on the first Tuesday of each month, excluding January and August. Meetings usually start at 7.30pm and take place at Puncknowle Village Hall.

Residents are warmly encouraged to attend. Public participation time is held at the start and end of each meeting, providing an opportunity to raise local issues or suggest items for future agendas.

Annual Parish Assembly

Each May, the Parish Council hosts the Annual Parish Assembly. This is an opportunity for residents to hear updates from local organisations and community groups, and to learn more about what is happening across the parish.
