| Shipley Parish Council Web Site |
Welcome to the web site of Shipley Parish Council, serving the residents of Shipley in Amber Valley, Derbyshire.
Shipley is a linear parish between Ilkeston and Heanor with a population of approximately 600. Because we have no state school or church within our boundary or indeed any such communal meeting point in our parish it is difficult for parishioners to feel a sense of belonging and this is one of the key matters that the Council wants to address. We hope to help this by renovating the old Parish Room in The Field and give the parish a focal point where clubs, meetings and events can once more unite the residents. Information on how this project is going can be found in 'News in Brief'.
On this site you can stay informed on current events that are happening in the Parish, read the minutes and findings that result from the Parish Council meetings and also have a say yourself by attending these meetings or contacting the Clerk or one of the Councillors (listed on this site) with your concerns - the Agenda for each meeting will be posted on the site at least a week before the meeting. You can also read/download details of past minutes held in the archive and eventually there will be opportunity to have access to other documents pertaining to the workings of the Council through the Freedom of Information Act.
We hope that this site will be your direct link to the workings of the Council to help us develop and sustain a sense of community within the parish of Shipley by addressing issues that matter to you, so this is your opportunity to be involved and have your say. |
