Town and parish councils:

• represent their local community
• deliver services to meet local needs and improve the quality of life for their community
• are funded by levying a parish 'precept' which is included in the Council Tax collected by Broadland District Council or South Norfolk Council
• have unpaid councillors who are elected to serve for four years

To find out more about the role of town and parish councils, see the GOV.UKwebsite.

You can also look up which polling district boundary covers which parish or ward.
