Year End Accounts for 2025/2026

Documents will be added to this page when completed.


The year-end Internal Audit will be undertaken on April 2026. The Audit Statement will be tabled at the Parish Council meeting in April or May 2026 for approval. The Statement, Internal Auditor’s report and notice of your right to inspect the accounts will be published here in due course.

In order to comply with the Accounts and Audit Regulations, it is stipulated that the Parish Council must provide a scanned version of the Annual Governance and Accountability Return (AGAR). Unfortunately, this is inaccessible to screen readers, so if you require this information, please contact the Clerk. Likewise, the format for some of the following reports may also be inaccessible for screen readers, so again, please contact the Clerk.
