COULD YOU BE A PARISH COUNCILLOR?
The sad death of Councillor Maureen Lenehan-Ferguson has created a vacancy for a Parish Councillor for Trimdon Foundry. We are hoping to recruit someone who is keen to learn, and above all wants to make a difference for local people.

A by-election is not required for this vacancy so the appointment will be made by co-option. If you are interested in becoming a councillor, please contact the Parish Clerk, Kate Holmes, by Thursday 13th August, by e-mail to clerk@trimdonfoundry-pc.gov.uk. The Clerk will send you an application form, to be submitted before Thursday 27th August. Applicants will be invited to address the Council at its next meeting on Tuesday 8th September, after which the Members will consider all applications and decide on the appointment.
