How can I contact the Parish Council ?

The best way to contact the Parish Council is via email using withypoolhawkridgeparishclerk@gmail.com .  Your enquiry can be easily passed onto Councillors if necessary and it allows a record to be kept.

 

I have sent an email, when can I expect a response ?

There is no set timeline for resonding to enquiries.  The Clerk only works three hours per week, so it will depend on current workload.  Some tasks, for example the preparation of agendas and writing of minutes will take priority as these are time critical.  Your enquiry may also require input from other sources.
