The work that your Parish Council does for the parish is largely financed by raising a precept via the Council Tax on all dwellings in the parish. The amount varies from year to year and depends upon what needs doing and what additional sources of income we have (e.g. grants).
All Parish Councils are subject to audit. Our internal auditors are Auditing Solutions Ltd. The External Auditor appointed to deal with Oxfordshire by the Smaller Authorities’ Audit Appointments, a sector-led limited company, is Moore UK. Copies of all accounts and audits for previous years are available to any member of the public by request, and are also available below.
The Government has still not created an accessible annual return for parish councils, so some of the documents below are published in the inaccessible format required by law but you can ask the Clerk for an accessible equivalent.
