Something you want looked at?

A street light out, a path problem, an idea for the village — send it through the contact form and choose “Something to raise at a meeting”. It reaches the whole council ahead of the next meeting. You can also simply come along: there is time set aside at every meeting for residents, and you do not need to be on the agenda.
