About this Event
Welcome to the Somerset Parish Conference 2024!
Date: Wednesday 13 November
Location: The Canalside Conference Centre, Marsh Lane, Bridgwater TA6 6LQ
Join us to celebrate Somerset's city, town and parish councils working together to improve the lives of our communities.
We are organising the Somerset Parishes Conference 2024 in partnership with Somerset Council, to mark the launch of our "Charter for Somerset".
The day will celebrate success stories from Somerset's Local Community Networks and SALC's Community Health and Wellbeing progamme, and develop our collective vision for the next phase of local solutions for our county.
We are delighted that Jonathan Owen, Chief Executive of the National Association of Local Councils (NALC) will be joining us to open the day.
The morning will feature workshop sessions on:
- How Somerset Councils can work more closely with parishes to deliver the vision of the Charter
- How city, town and parish councils are improving the health and wellbeing of our communities
- How we can all work together to improve council standards across our county
The conference will also feature a marketplace for organisations that deliver services to local councils, and our partner organisations.
The final session of the afternoon will feature SALC's AGM, where we will elect new Directors for the coming year.
Do not miss this vital annual event for local councils across Somerset.
We regret that, owing to venue capacity and that Somerset boasts 276 city, town and parish councils, tickets will be restricted to two representatives of each local council. For SALC's AGM, this must include an elected councillor to qualify for a vote.
