Lowdham Parish Council unveils new office and community meeting space in village

A new office space and hireable meeting room is set to increase a council’s services in the community.

Lowdham Parish Council has developed a new venue which will provide its staff with further office space that can also be hired for meetings.

It will extend the services provided by the council, with the clerk attending the office on a regular basis from September 2024, initially for an hour or so on the mornings of Tuesday and Thursday each week for villagers to raise matters with the council.

The official opening on August 8 was attended by councillors, staff and the public.

Chairman Paul Harrison thanked all those who had been involved in designing, building and managing the development — with special thanks to Jon Banner, Rob Spencer, Bill Banner and Martin Holford.

The facility offers a meeting or working area for up to ten people, with wi-fi, print facilities, presentation technology, access to a kitchen, and parking available adjacent to the office.
