Meetings are usually held on the second Wednesday of each month at 7pm. The Annual Parish Meeting is in April of each year and takes place at on the same day as the Parish Council meeting, usually immediately before it. Future meeting dates through 2025 are as follows:
2025 – December 10th
2026 – January 14th, February 11th, March 11th, April 8th
The Parish Council is no longer able to hold online meetings due to legislation. Meetings are once again being held in Briantspuddle Village Hall but in the main hall where there is more space for social distancing. Any residents who wish to raise a local issue or comment on an agenda item may contact the Clerk in advance of the meeting if they would prefer not to attend in person.
The Agendas and Minutes for the meetings of the Affpuddle and Turnerspuddle Parish Council are available below. These cover the current civic year which runs from May 1st to April 30th. Some older minutes are also available. We are working towards having minutes available from the previous three civic years (this starts May of each year) as well as the current one. For now, if you would like to view copies of the minutes of earlier meetings that are not currently available on the website, please contact the Clerk by email:
Please note:
1. Formal Minutes are made publicly available after they have been approved at the next meeting. For example September’s Minutes will be available on this site sometime after the October meeting. However, draft minutes of the most recent meeting are available for up to date information but must be treated with care as they will not have been approved by the full Council.
2. There is sometimes no meeting in August.
Please note that the 12th November 2025 monthly Parish Council meeting has been cancelled as a quorum could not be attained (not enough Councillors able to attend).

The Parish Council is deeply saddened to hear of the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
The Queen made good her vow of service which she embraced at the tender age of 21. At the time of her passing, we want to express our thanks for this service and her life well lived. The example The Queen set throughout her long reign will continue to endure as a vivid inspiration to us all and for this we are most grateful.
During the period of National Mourning, as a mark of respect, the September meeting of The Parish Council was cancelled.
