Your Councillors

Local Councillors are elected by the community to decide how the council should carry out its various activities. They represent public interest as well as individuals living within the ward in which he or she has been elected to serve a term of office.

They have regular contact with the general public through council meetings, telephone calls or surgeries. Surgeries provide an opportunity for any ward resident to go and talk their councillor face to face and these take place on a regular basis.

Councillors are not paid a salary for their work, but they do receive allowances. By law, all members of the Council are required to complete a declaration of interest form, the details of which are published on each Councillors webpage.

To find your councillor please use the below links:

During the period March 2020 to December 2020 owing to the Covid-19 Pandemic the Council moved to day time meetings. This prevented some Elected Members attending their Committee Meetings owing to their other work commitments.
