Networking

We know many clerks work in isolation and sometimes feel they need to talk to other clerks to share ideas. Join in with our popular clerks' networking sessions, we think you'll find it a good use of your time.

Training

Norfolk PTS is pleased to present a selection of courses designed to develop and support the work of parish councils, their clerks and their councillors.

We represent parish councils to district/borough, county, regional and national bodies and work to enhance communication with everyone within the Parish Council network.

As a membership association HAPTC is unable to deal with queries from members of the public, but is happy to make general information available through this website. Membership is open to any parish, community or town council or parish meeting which pays an annual subscription to the Association
