Welcome to the website of Reighton and Speeton Parish Council!

Members of the public are welcome to attend and during the public forum can address the councillors and ask questions.

Councillor Vacancies

Would you like to make a difference in your local community? Our Parish Council currently has two vacancies for Parish Councillors and we are inviting local residents who are passionate about supporting the area and helping shape its future to come forward.

Parish Councillors play an important role in representing residents, making decisions on local matters, supporting community projects, and helping to ensure that the needs and interests of the parish are heard. No previous experience is required – just a willingness to get involved, attend meetings, and contribute ideas for the benefit of the community.

If you are interested in becoming a Parish Councillor and would like to find out more, please contact the Parish Clerk for further information.
