There are some 70,000 parish councillors in England and Wales. Parish councillors get no financial reward for what they do, but are, nevertheless, accountable to local people for things that happen locally.

Elections take place to elect councillors every 5 years. The next election will take place in May 2012. Councillors can also be co-opted; this is where the council chooses who will fill the vacant seats if there are not enough candidates at election time. In addition, if a vacancy occurs between elections, the council must find out if the electors want an election before they can co-opt.

Currently there are four vacant seats on the council, one for Munsley and three for Aylton.
