Borough Councillors

This section provides information about Councillors.

New Council ChamberEach of the Borough's 51 Councillors has a duty to the whole community and a special duty to their ward constituents.

All Councillors have agreed to follow a Code of Conduct to ensure high standards in the way they undertake their duties.

The Council has a Standards Committee to provide training and advice on the code.

Councillors are elected by our residents and are not full-time council workers. Some have full-time jobs, others are retired. All give up a great deal of their own time to serve their local community.

The Councillors serve on committees which meet regularly to discuss the Council's business.

The Borough also has a Mayor and a Deputy Mayor, who attend over 300 civic, ceremonial and social engagements each year.
