Wingfield Parish Council is made up of six councillors, who tend to take the lead in an area of interest such as highways, environment, planning, footpaths etc. The Parish Council is supported by a paid part-time Clerk and training is available.
The next meeting of Wingfield Parish Council will take place at 7.30pm on Wednesday 30 July at Stowford Manor Farm.

Following the local elections in May there are two vacancies on Wingfield Parish Council.
If you’re a community-minded person who can listen to others and is interested in ensuring the best outcomes for the village, then Wingfield Parish Council needs you!
Parish councils are part of grassroots democracy and contribute to the well-being of neighbourhoods by:
To be considered for co-option, residents need to write a short statement about themselves, their skills & experience or their interest in supporting the council, as well as confirming that they meet criteria to be eligible to stand. Applications should be submitted to the Clerk by 15 June so that they can be considered by councillors at the next Parish Council meeting on 18 June.
Contact Selina, the Parish Clerk, at clerk@wingfieldparishcouncil.gov.uk or 07846 777510, for an informal chat about the responsibilities and commitment (not huge) and the satisfaction (immense) of serving your community.

This will be the Annual Meeting of the Council and the first meeting since last week’s local elections. There were fewer nominations to stand as Wingfield Parish Councillors than the six councillor positions that exist, so all candidates were elected without contest. We welcome back Jenny, Kath, Mark and Gillian.
The Parish Council will now look to co-opt two more residents to the Parish Council so please get in touch if you’re interested in finding out more about the role and being involved in your local community.
Wingfield Parish Councillors work hard, on an unpaid basis, to improve village life for our community. We encourage residents to engage with the Parish Council and to bring forward comments and ideas in a constructive way. Residents can contact the Clerk at: clerk@wingfieldparishcouncil.gov.uk or on 07846 777510.
We also welcome Nigel White who was elected as the new Unitary Councillor for Winsley & Westwood division (which includes Wingfield).
Sorry, but we’ve had to postpone the next meeting of Wingfield Parish Council which was due to take place at 7.30pm on Wednesday 7th May, as councillors are unwell and there are not enough councillors to be quorate.
We are looking to reschedule the meeting to next week and will publicise details once these are confirmed.
Sorry, but we’ve had to postpone this event. We aim to hold the screening later in the year and will post details when we have a date confirmed.
Wingfield Parish Council will host a showing of the fascinating documentary, My Garden of 1000 Bees, at 7pm on Friday 6th June in St Mary’s Church.
A Bristol wildlife film maker provides a close up view of these wonderful insects and their lives as he records them in his back garden.
The film is being shown as part of the Wild Waters Festival.
