About Sandiacre
Sandiacre is recognised for its canal and industrial heritage, ease of access to major road networks, three Conservation Areas and the impressive 10th century St Giles’ Church.
The village has expanded over the years to create a large residential population of over 9,000, but one which still maintains a vibrant and friendly community at heart.
About the Parish Council
Safeguarding the future of Sandiacre for everyone is a priority for the Parish Council and Councillors welcome residents’ views. Residents are always very welcome to attend Parish Council meetings or speak directly with Councillors. Parish Councils are the first tier of local government working closest to their communities and consisting of local Councillors who volunteer their time. Sandiacre has 14 Members, which is the largest of the parishes in Erewash.
Meetings of the Parish Council
Council meetings are held on the first Tuesday in the month except during August and unless otherwise stated. In March, the Annual Parish Meeting is held and in May the Annual Parish Council Meeting takes place, at which the Chairman is elected (visit the Annual Parish Meeting page for more information). Meetings are held in the Memorial Institute on Doncaster Avenue. The dates of forthcoming meetings are shown on the Meetings page and displayed on the four community notice boards.

The Parish Council Website
The aim of the website is to communicate effectively with residents and keep them informed about local news and events.
There is a range of information available, including past and present Agendas, Minutes, contact details for your Councillors and dates of meetings throughout the civic year.
Information can be edited and posted by the Council itself, so news, notices, local information and news of local forthcoming events can be included and kept updated.
Information contained within the website will grow over time and all local organisations, clubs and groups are welcome to share their news.
We have displayed a selection of photographs showing a range of areas within the parish, but more are welcome and can be added. Perhaps from your recent event or one that depicts a particular local scene that highlights Sandiacre as a special and unique place to live and work.
Should you have any questions or comments about the new website or suggestions for further information and features, then do please contact our Clerk, Michelle Bloor.
Thank you!
Sandiacre Parish Council
