Welcome to Our Parish

Welcome to the new Mary Tavy Parish Council website. The idea is for this to become your convenient point of reference for all that’s going on at the Parish Council. Mary Tavy is a community full of action – with youth club, pre-school, primary school, pubs, post office and village shop, Coronation Hall, recreation ground, snooker, twinning association, over 55s drop-in, churches and WI – a proper village! We hope you will find this useful if you live in Mary Tavy or are just visiting.

One of the main purposes for this site is to publicise the work of the Parish Council with the aim of encouraging involvement and therefore local democracy. Parish Councils are the grass-roots of local government, they are local authorities and although they have a limited number of statutory duties, they do have wide powers, by becoming involved in the local community you can directly affect how these powers are implemented.

So please get involved in your Parish, if we all work together it will be a better place for us to live and to raise our children and grandchildren.

We hope that you will find this website useful and interesting. If you have any suggestions for additional information or links that should be included on the site then please let us know by emailing Lisa Jenkins the Content Manager.  If you would like to get involved in any of the village organisations or events please use the contact details provided.


Mary Tavy a une association prospérée de jumelage, ayant été jumelée avec Méry–Corbon en Normandie pendant plus de trente années.
