Your Parish Council is the first layer of local government with the aim of responding to local needs and engaging local people in decision making. Parish Councillors attend other bodies as community representatives to ensure that the voice of Edington is heard. The Parish Council looks at the need to provide facilities in the village for the benefit of the community and takes a view on planning proposals and surveys such that the integrity of our community is protected.”
