The Parish Council of Carlton Colville meets monthly, normally on the last Wednesday of the month.  Meetings are public and anybody wishing to attend is welcome to come along.  There is usually a representative at the meetings from the local community police force.  Meetings are traditionally held at the Methodist Chuurch Hall at Shaw Avenue but currently are being held at the Uplands Community Centre at Ashburnham Way in the Jubilee Room.  Meetings start at 6.45.  Click on the page for Parish Council for more information.

If you have never been to Carlton Colville here is a bit about it:

Carlton Colville is situated two miles south of Lowestoft, the most easterly town in the UK.
It has a population which has trebled over the last twenty years with an electorate now numbering over seven thousand.

Facilities include two churches, three schools, a community centre, and four public houses, small local shops, a supermarket and a doctor's surgery.

With expansion, the village has grown in three directions with the supermarket, doctor's surgery and newest primary school being built in one of the outlying areas.

Recent developments have included a central open park area which has proved popular throughout the community.
