Bleadon Parish Council
Councillors and Employees
Bleadon BOB has been assisting residents with access to information and public scrutiny since 2006. Below are tables of information relating to councillors, clerks and their employees and contractors during this time.
Ideally Bleadon Parish Council should consider allocating responsibility for different areas of the parish to each councillor, a similar approach to Weston Town Council. This may hopefully stop the overwhelming 'village' vs 'parish' view and decision making, created through the co-option/'friends' process, and may make local democracy more inclusive for all residents.
NB: Due to a lack of consitency/transparency in BPC minutes and/or a lack of documentation/publication not all information is publicly accessible and is therefore noted as '??'.

BPC Annual Valued Citizen Award
| Year | Citizen | Minute | Information |
| 2019 |
Mary Sheppard |
APM | "Steve explained that the Parish Council had initiated the Valued Citizen Award last year in order to recognise the considerable contribution to the village, over many years, of individuals within the parish. This year’s nomination was for a long-term resident of the village who had also served as a parish councillor for over thirty years. Over that time councillors old and new relied on her comprehensive knowledge of the village, the people, and the history of the area, and this continues today, benefiting the decision-making of the current parish council. Steve presented the Award to Cllr Mary Sheppard." |
| 2018 |
Jo Jones |
APM | "Later in the meeting (at 8.35pm) the second Valued Citizen Award was presented to Ms Joanne Jones. Until recently Jo was the bookings officer for the Coronation Halls, providing an excellent service and continuity for 35 years, a valuable contribution to village life. The Chairman presented a framed certificate to Ms Jones." |
| 2018 |
Chirs Cudlipp |
APM | "The Chairman announced the presentation of the first Valued Citizen Awards to Mr Chris Cudlipp. Chris has organised Bleadon Horticultural Society and the Society’s Spring and Summer Flower Shows for over 40 years, an outstanding contribution to village life. The Chairman presented a framed certificate to Mr Cudlipp." |
