Co-option Vacancy
Councillor Vacancy
If you think that you would like to represent the views of your neighbours and residents of Congham, please consider joining Congham Parish Council who are seeking to co-opt 3 new Councillors, who are willing to reflect the views of the village.
We would welcome any resident who has an interest in working for the village of Congham; the Parish Council currently has very little female representation or youth representation. The Clerk would be happy to talk to anyone who would like some further information.
Housing Needs Survey
Residents of Congham and the surrounding parishes have received a Housing Needs Survey from RCA Regeneration Ltd.
There is a lack of transparency as to who has commissioned the survey.
The Clerk has contacted the BC who confirmed that they are not aware of any such survey authorised by the panel.
Please note that the Parish Council and the Borough Council are not involved.
This survey is independently conducted for unknown purpose by RCA Regeneration Ltd who are independent planning consultants.
