Panfield Parish Council currently has two vacancies, and we’re looking for two people who would like to get more involved in the village.

Being a Parish Councillor is much more than sitting in meetings. It’s a chance to have a real say in what happens in Panfield, put forward ideas, help improve the village and get involved in the things that matter to local residents.

From our playing fields, play equipment and open spaces to planning applications, community projects and improvements around the village, councillors help decide where our priorities should be and how we use the Council’s resources.

And it doesn’t have to take over your life! The Council meets around 8 times a year, with opportunities to get involved in other projects and areas that particularly interest you.

You don’t need any previous council experience. We’re looking for people who care about Panfield, have ideas and want to make a difference. Whatever your background, skills or experience, you could bring something valuable to the Council.

If that sounds like something you’d enjoy, we’d love to hear from you.

Applications close on 31 October 2026.

To apply, send a brief statement telling us why you’d like to join and what you think you could bring to the Council to clerk@panfieldparishcouncil.uk.

Not sure whether it’s for you? Get in touch with the Clerk for an informal chat about what the role involves.
