The Precept is the element of your Council Tax that is paid to Heath and Holmewood Parish Council.

Every year, the Parish Council draws up budgets and calculates how much money it needs for the next Financial Year. These are then submitted to North East Derbyshire District Council. NEDDC co-ordinate the other demands from DCC, Police and themselves and come up with the rate to be paid from 1st April that year.

To foster and encourage local clubs, groups and organisations in the Council area, the Council makes budget provision for grant aid to voluntary bodies for specific projects or items of equipment to continue their operation for the benefit of local people.

Any Club, Society or organisation who is based in the Parish Council area can apply.
