Parish conferences provide a valuable opportunity for us to engage with parish councils and communities and work together to address common themes.
We will post details of our next parish conference when it becomes available.
Agendas, minutes and presentations made at past parish conferences since 2019 are available on this webpage. Documents from earlier parish conferences are available on request.
Theme: Climate change
Parish councils and councillors were invited to attend a drop in style event. The theme of the event was ‘Helping Parish Councils to help themselves’.
Alongside the district council the following organisations were represented at the event: Sanctuary Housing, Cambridgeshire Police, Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority, Voluntary and Community Action East Cambridgeshire, Cambs ACRE, Community Land Trusts, the Highways Agency and Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Association of Local Councils.
