Residents and Parish Council Working Together

Are you interested in working with the Parish Council on various projects to improve and maintain areas of the village?

If yes, and you have time to spare, we would welcome your support and constructive input as a representative of the residents.

Currently we are looking at the following projects:-

1. How to make parking around the school at drop off and pick up times safer and less congested

2. General parking issues around the centre of the village

3. Potential short and long term improvements to the Paddock, including play equipment and facilities

4. ‘Neighbourhood Watch’ or similar 

These will require attendance at meetings and follow up of actions as necessary.

If you do not have the time to commit to an on-going project but would volunteer to help out with ad hoc general maintenance or tidying around the village we would also welcome your support.

If you are able to support us in any of the above, please contact the Clerk or Chairman

clerk@upchurchpc.kentparishes.gov.uk            chair@upchurchpc.kentparishes.gov.uk

Lastly, we are sadly without our village cleaner, with the post currently being advertised, so please take extra special care in disposing of your rubbish, and if you are able to tidy up an offending area near you please do!
