Church Electoral Roll

The PCC appoints a church electoral roll officer who deals with the electoral roll under the direction of the PCC. A new roll was prepared in 2008 and will be prepared in every succeeding sixth year. There are provisions for updating the roll annually.

This is the roll of persons who are qualified electors in the parish.  An elector must:-

• be baptised;
• be 16 years or upwards;
• have signed an application for enrolment in which he declares
• he is a member of the Church of England or of a church in communion with it and is resident in the parish or
• is such a member and, not being resident in the parish, has habitually attended public worship in the parish during a period of six months prior to enrolment.
