Cosgrove Parish Council

Email accounts for our Parish Council clerk and Councillors are now using the official dot gov dot uk addresses.
After many years where Parish Councils were not supported when setting up email accounts, the majority were left to purchase dot org dot uk domains. This was recognised by government and support has been put in place for Parish Councils to use the official email address.
Contact details for Cosgrove Parish Council are available here. 

With only six members of the community standing for re-election to Cosgrove Parish Council, there are three vacant positions that can now be filled by co-option. If you have thoughts about maintaining or improving Cosgrove, like making decisions, can listen and share your knowledge, you are invited to come forward, attend meetings and let the clerk know of your interest.
The Parish Council meets on the first Wednesday of each month, except August, in the Village Hall at 7.30pm.
