Dear Resident of Nether Alderley

We are currently looking to fill the two remaining vacant Councillor seats on the Parish Council.

These will be by co-option because we had the “all out” elections in May 2023 and there cannot be another lection within 6 months of that date. 

To find out about what being a Parish Councillor involves then why not have a chat with David our Parish Clerk 07717 244537 and click on this LINK to Good Councillor Guide on our website. 

Criteria for candidates: 

• aged 18 or more
• an elector for the parish or
• resident of the parish for the past twelve months or
• rented/tenanted land in the parish or
• has his/her principal place of work in the parish or
• living within three miles radius (as the crow flies) of the parish

There are certain disqualifications from becoming a parish councillor:

• holding a paid office for the Parish Council
• bankruptcy
• having been sentenced to a term of imprisonment (whether suspended or not) of not less than three months, without the option of a fine during the five years preceding the election
• being disqualified under any enactment relating to corrupt or illegal practice

This is essentially an unpaid position other than minor expenses but can be very rewarding.  There is a lot going on within the Parish which encompasses Alderley Park. You will join six other councillors in this role.
