2018/19 Budget and Expenditure 

The Town Council pays for services and responsibilities through their budget.  This is made up, in the main, from the Precept (see definition below) paid by the council tax-payers of Prudhoe, in addition to income from sponsorship and events, burial fees, the reclaim of VAT, grants and any balances from the previous year.

The Town Council sets its budget in January in order to make the precept demand to Northumberland County Council.  You can view our precept demand below (click on the image to open as a PDF document).

The Town Council is accountable to the people of Prudhoe for how it spends money and members of the public are free to ask questions concerning our budget and spending.

Precept Precept the amount which a local authority which cannot bill the council tax directly requires to be collected on its behalf by the relevant billing authority. 

Below you can view the Budget and Expenditure spreadsheet as a working document; this is updated regularly and uploaded monthly.
