Bringing the Community together
Great Barton Parish Council serves as the first tier of local government for our village, working to represent the interests, priorities, and wellbeing of the community. We focus on the everyday issues that matter most to residents - ranging from planning consultations and local services to village amenities, road safety, and community projects.
As a council, we aim to be approachable, transparent, and responsive. We work closely with residents, local organisations, and district and county partners to help maintain Great Barton’s character while supporting thoughtful development and long‑term sustainability.
Whether it’s improving public spaces, supporting local initiatives, or ensuring the village’s voice is heard in wider decision‑making, the Parish Council is committed to helping Great Barton remain a vibrant, safe, and welcoming place to live.
We currently have vacancies for Councillors so if you want to hear more contact Chair@greatbarton-pc.gov.uk
