Carbrooke Parish Council

The Role of a Councillor

A councillor is a member of the Council and is normally elected for a term of four years.  People of any political or religious persuasion are eligible to become a councillor, although their personal views should not extend into their Parish Council work. A councillor is an unpaid voluntary role.

​

Councillors are elected to represent the interests of the local community as a whole and to promote a harmonious local environment. The number of elected councillors depends on the size of the area. In Carbrooke we currently have 9 councillors.
