- Precept/Grant 2023/24 – after carefully consideration of future budget, this year’s expenses, price increases, etc it was proposed, seconded and agreed by all to increase the parish council precept by 10% (£1,478) giving a total of £16,258 for the year to enable services and projects to be addressed as and when required in all the villages.
