Hemswell Parish Council aims to -
Provide services for the parishioners of Hemswell parish and manage and maintain the assets in the parish of Hemswell. The Parish Council will seek and listen to the wishes of the parishioners and carefully manage the resources provided by the annual precept and other incomes, to fulfil those wishes where possible, and at all times, seeking value for money and adherence to legal and financial controls.
Hemswell Parish Council meet on the third Monday of January, March, May, July, September and November. Meetings are typically held at 7:00 pm in the Hemswell and Harpswell Village Hall. Occasionally, there are additional 'extraordinary' meetings to discuss items of an urgent nature between the scheduled meetings. Our Annual Meeting of the Parish Council is held in May. A separate Annual Meeting of the Parish is held just once a year, usually in March or immediately before the Annual Parish Council meeting in May.
Meeting dates and agendas are published on this website and on the village notice boards located at the village hall and on Brook Street. You can find out more about the work of the PC, it's members, policies and procedures and local events through the main pages.
Residents are welcome to attend full council meetings and can speak briefly on village matters at the beginning of the meeting in public question time. Items not on the agenda for that evening's meeting can't be discussed in detail, but if you want to discuss a particular topic, it may be added to the agenda for the following meeting or dealt with in writing. You can contact the clerk by email at clerk@hemswellparishcouncil.org.uk
