Parish Council Noticeboard
Parish Council Flood Warden
FLOOD WARDEN
Until recently, there has been no need for a flood Warden in Stinchcombe as, apart from the occasional burst main or blocked drain we’ve been lucky enough to be flood-free. However, the last two winters have seen considerable flooding problems, particularly in the Berkeley Road area.
We would now like to appoint a local Flood Warden to help avoid such problems in future by monitoring roadside ditches, drains, culverts etc and reporting problems before they get out of hand.
If you might be interested in taking on this role, with support from the Parish Council, please contact Kath Hudson
Parish Council Charities Representative
Parish Council requires Charities Representative
Dursley United Charities operate in the Dursley, Cam, Stinchcombe and Uley area to help local people in need. The Charities own land and properties in the area, the rents from which are used to provide financial help for those who need it.
Russ Holloway has represented Stinchcombe Parish Council on the Charities’ board for many years but has finally decided to retire.
The post is not onerous, involving little more than attendance at one board meeting per year and providing a brief financial report to the Parish Council at the Annual Parish Assembly. If you would be interested intaking on this role, or would like more information about it, please contact the Clerk
