As many Hoveton residents will be aware, elections for North Norfolk District Council are due to take place on 2nd May 2019, but what you may not know is that this date coincides with Parish Council elections, which take place every four years. If you care about Hoveton and are passionate about your local community, why not consider standing as a candidate in these elections?
