Councillor Vacancies

Do you love living in Wivelsfield? Would you like to have a say in the facilities and services available? Are there things that you would like to see improved? Could you give up around one evening a month for meetings and have time to do some reading in between?

If you’ve answered yes to any of the above, maybe you would like to consider joining the Parish Council?

Following the recent resignation of John Fair, after two years of serving on the Council, we have four councillor vacancies to fill. With the Neighbourhood Plan in place and Community Infrastructure Levy money starting to come through, it is an exciting time to be involved. We’d love to see some more community-minded individuals come forward to help shape the future of the Parish.

To find out more about what’s involved, please contact the Clerk, or come along to a meeting.
