The purpose of the Forum is to raise the profile and increase awareness of the work undertaken by Parish Councils, to provide a platform where residents (parishoners) can communicate quickly and easily with their elected councillors as well as being a resource to the community in general.
Parish Councils have no connection with any religeous denomination; the term "parish" is used to denote a specific area and in the case of a Parish Council this is the "civic parish". Most Parish Councils' websites carry a map which outlines the parish boundary. It's also generally accepted that they are non-political, however, this does not necessarily extend to Town Councils of which there are two in the Wycombe District. It is their non-political status which should make Parish Councils more effective in providing the specific services and facilities that are required in their Parish to improve the quality of life for their residents.
Parish Forum is sponsored by www.parishcouncilwebsite.co.uk which is part of www.mh-p.org |
