APCM
Annual Parochial Church Meeting
Every year the Annual Parochial Church Meetings take place between January and 31 May. Each PCC is responsible for setting a date within this timeframe.
A letter with information and a helpful tick list is being sent out to all PCC Secretaries, Administrators, Churchwardens and Clergy, in:
• January – when there is a revision of the Electoral Roll (ER)
• November – the year before a New ER
Letter
This letter contains links to resources, such as forms and notices for the APCM. Please see also Resources

Usually before the APCM the AGM takes place to elect the Churchwardens. Anyone living in the parish, whether they attend the church or not, can attend the AGM and elect the churchwardens.
