RUDHEATH Parish Council is on the lookout for five new members.

Applicants need to be able to attend evening meetings on the second Monday of each month, and devote some of their spare time to parish matters.

“We've had five people leave us in the last 12 months,” council clerk Fiona Penny. “So we need some new faces!

“Councillors must be over 18 but other than that there are no age restrictions - we've got one member who is 82!”

If you are interested in becoming a councillor and live within a three-mile radius of the Rudheath parish, write to Fiona Penny, Rudheath Parish Council, 67 Shipbrook Road, Rudheath.

Alternatively, call 01606 351976 or email rpcclerk@tiscali.co.uk.
