The Parish Council were delighted to receive the Local Council Foundation Level Award at the Council meeting on Wednesday 7 June 2023.
The Local Council Award Scheme (LCAS) has been designed to celebrate the successes of the very best local councils and to provide a framework to support all local councils to improve and develop to meet their full potential. The scheme offers councils the opportunity to show that they meet the standards set by the sector and put in place the conditions for continued improvement.
The award was presented to Councillor Gordon Patrick BEM by the Chief Executive Officer of Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes Association of Local Councils, Mel Woof.
Mel explained that the award is judged nationally and is the first step on a journey to achieve gold accreditation. There are only five councils out of 240 in the Buckinghamshire region who have achieved an award in this scheme.
Mel congratulated the Clerk for her work towards achieving the award and also thanked the Council for having the right ethos and commitment to want to achieve the best for their parishioners.
