Hello, my name is John Augustus and I am your new Parish Clerk. Caroline has decided to move on to new pastures and we wish her all the very best and thank her for her professionalism in her role as Parish Clerk.

I live in Brean, near Burnham-on-Sea and although this is a fair distance away from Chapel Allerton you will see me walking about from time to time making sure that all is ok around the village. I am also Parish Clerk for Weare, so know the area fairly well.

I have been a Clerk since 2016 and was a Senior Finance Officer for North Somerset Council before that, so I have a broad knowledge of council matters. I hope that I will be able to serve the Parish Council and its parishioners to the best of my knowledge.
