  • Parish Council Elections on 2 May 2019

    Local Elections 2 May 2019

    Time to make a difference?

    This year the Parish Council elections coincide with the District Council elections on 2 May 2019. So now is the time to consider taking an active part in local government and representing the views of all the residents in the parish. Would you like to make a difference to your local community? Kettlestone is looking for potential new councillors.

    The role is not onerous: the Parish Council meets six times a year; councillors spend some time between meetings on parish council matters or particular projects depending on their involvement.

    The Parish Council has an overall responsibility for the well-being of the local neighbourhood. The work falls into three main categories: representing the local community; delivering services to meet local needs (often in conjunction with the District and County Councils); and striving to improve the quality of life in the local area.

    A wide range of training for councillors is available, covering role and responsibilities, law and procedures, planning, council finance, budget and precept, employment issues.

    Make a difference and stand as a Parish Councillor

    • Get involved with your community
    • Have a say about the local issues
    • Influence the way local services are provided
    • Decide how local money is spent to improve your community.

    If you wish to stand as a Parish Councillor you will need to complete a Nomination Paper (see information below) which must be hand delivered to the Returning Officer, Electoral Services, North Norfolk District Council, Holt Road, Cromer, Norfolk, NR27 9EN on any working day after the date of the Notice of Election (26 March) between the hours of 10am and 4pm but no later than 4pm on Wednesday 3 April.

    The link below provides information regarding the qualifications for standing, candidate spending, the campaign, your right to attend key electoral events and what to do after the declaration of results. It is a very useful page and may help potential candidates decide if they want to stand and if they qualify to stand. https://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/i-am-a/candidate-or-agent/parish-and-community-council-elections-in-england-and-wales . To find the nomination paper, on Part 2a click on “Click here to view resources for Part 2a: Standing as an independent candidate” and the papers are there. You will also need to print out and return an Expenses Form (Part 3) and send it to the District Council by 30 May even if it is a nil entry.

  • Village Boules Competition report

    KETTLESTONE VILLAGE BOULES COMPETITION

    The forecast was being monitored regularly and gave us a few moments of dread, but all seemed to be propitious for the Kettlestone Village Boules Competition.  In previous years the event had been held on the August Bank Holiday Sunday – how glad we were that we decided to put it back to early September!

    Pam Whitehead and Martyn Proffitt, our umpires, organised us tactfully and patiently, and we had lots of spectators, many of whom contributed to our BQQ lunch.  The home-made lemon drink went down well, as did beer and wine, and the burgers and sausages were cooked to perfection. It was a most enjoyable day, the village showing us what a great community we live in, and the weather smiling on us.  Thanks to one and all who came to support us, took part, contributed to the feast, and generally helped to make what was a special village event.
