HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT OF BECOMING A PARISH COUNCILLOR?
If you live or work in or near the Parish and would like to make a real difference to the local community and environment, now is a good time to consider becoming a councillor.
WHAT EXPERTISE DO PARISH COUNCILLORS NEED? The most important thing that Parish councillors need is enough time and enthusiasm to get things done. The Council has a strict code of conduct but a fair amount of flexibility in deciding what it should do. So members need to be proactive and identify issues and gaps that really matter and how to tackle them - particularly important now that District and County resources are being stretched thinner.
At Nettlebed Parish Council there are 8 seats (2 seats are currently vacant).
If you would like more information, please contact parish.clerk@nettlebed-pc.org.uk / tel: 01491 614815
The next Parish Council meeting is on Weds, 6th Feb at 7.30pm - click here to see the agenda.

Good morning,
My name is Bill Wilber and I'm writing to see if you might help me with contact information for Annie Gordon; or more likely her daughter, Fiona Gordon who used to own the Small House across from the White Hart hotel in Nettlebed.
My high school crew team (Washington-Lee High School) stayed at Annie's house for two weeks in late June and early July 1969 while we were training and competing at the Henley Regatta for the Princess Elizabeth Cup. Annie, Fiona and a couple of Fiona's friends fed us and otherwise took good care of us those two weeks and I remember telling Fiona at the end or our trip that if she ever had interest in visiting the United States to see Washington DC and vicinity, we'd be happy to host her. That was 50 years ago, and I'm now coordinating the 50th reunion of our high school class' and thought it would be wonderful if...
