Serving on Council is an opportunity to make a difference in your local community and have a direct impact on the decisions that shape your area.

It is also a rewarding way to contribute to your local community, offering the opportunity to influence local policy and represent the voices of other residents.

Councillors play a crucial role in shaping the future of the local area, from planning and development to environmental management and community services.

These sessions will provide valuable insights into the roles and responsibilities of a Councillor, the election process and the campaign regulations.
