All the above, plus more, needs the commitment of 8 residents to put themselves forward to serve as Parish Councillors. The work is continually changing and in the coming months there will be a huge project associated with 10 acres of land being gifted to the Parish Council, for public parkland, as part of the Kimpton Grange development. This will require careful consideration to ensure the best recreational space is created for the community and that the financial liability is fully understood.
