The Council is represented on over 100 Organisations/Bodies, excluding governors it appoints to local schools. In most cases the representative is a member of the Council but this is not always the case, and the number of representatives also varies. Some organisations have a very local focus, others operate in the Borough and on a wider arena. In all cases, the representative, as an appointee of the Council, provides a valuable and valued link between the Council and organisations active in the Borough. Below are details of the various associated and outside bodies, including the representatives appointed by the Council.
Council Representatives are required to submit an Annual Report by May each year briefy summarising their activity on the outside body. This can be done via this Online Form
