All members of the public are welcome at these meetings. If you wish to have an item added to the agenda, please contact a Parish Councillor.

FUNDING AVAILABLE - the Parish Council has limited funds available that it may be able to offer in the form of grants for village organisations.  Ashfield-cum-Thorpe Parish Council has introduced a new Funding Application form for groups or organisations who are looking for a grant from the Council. We believe that having a short standard form will benefit everyone; applicants should find it easier to understand what information the Council needs to make decisions, and to supply that information. It should also be easier for councillors to compare different applications, and we hope it will make the whole process more transparent. Click Application for Funding from Ashfield-cum-Thorpe Parish Council to download the form. If you have any questions about the form, or the process for applying to the Council for funding, please contact the Parish Clerk
