Hartington Upper Quarter Parish Council meets 10 times a year (not January or August) usually on the first Wednesday of the month. Meetings are held mostly at Brandside Parish Hall (SK17 0SF) but occasionally instead at Sterndale Moor Social Club (SK17 9QB).
There is also an Annual Parish Meeting held in May each year, usually 30 minutes before the monthly meeting.
Members of the public are welcome to attend.
