PARISH COUNCILS

It is time to recognise clerks

Local Council Clerk Week is taking place from 10 to 14 July. Rob Smith says clerks are truly at the heart of everything their councils do and it’s time we celebrated their achievements.

The Society of Local Council Clerks (SLCC) is asking town, parish and community councils across England and Wales to help support Local Council Clerk Week, which is taking place from 10 to 14 July 2023. 

Through this new initiative, SLCC, which is the professional membership body for local council clerks and senior council employees, aims to raise awareness and celebrate the all-important and wide-ranging work clerks carry out on behalf of their communities, ultimately helping to raise the profile of this important profession within a sector often overlooked by the government.
