Nominations sought for Community Councillors in Bridge of Weir and Renfrew

4th Nov 2024

People in Bridge of Weir and Renfrew are being encouraged to become part of their Community council as the nomination process gets underway.

Community councils are a focal point for community activity and share the views of residents with organisations that deliver services in the area, such as Renfrewshire Council, NHS and Police Scotland.

The closing date for nominations is Friday 22 November 2024, and nomination forms can be requested by emailing community-council.cs@renfrewshire.gov.uk

Renfrewshire Council Leader Iain Nicolson said: “Community councils are incredibly important as they give local people the chance to present the views of their community to the council, NHS and Police Scotland.

“We are always looking to use local knowledge to improve our neighbourhoods so if you feel you can make a positive difference to where you live then please put forward your nomination before the closing date.”

Nomination forms must be filled out in full, include a proposer and seconder who are residents of the area and listed on the Voters’ Roll, and be signed in ink by all parties.

Forms returned incomplete, unsigned, without a valid proposer and seconder, or submitted after the deadline cannot be accepted.
