Welcome to
West Somerset Council

West Somerset Council aims to work in partnership with both private and public sector organisations to establish a good quality of life for all residents in West Somerset.

Councillors

Councillors make decisions about the work and spending of the Council and represent the views of local people. Each Councillor represents an area of the district known as a 'ward'.

You can search for your ward and find out who your Councillor is by postcode on the website www.writetothem.com

Or if you already know your ward or Councillor, you can use Find a Councillor to find out more information and contact your Councillor using the Contact your Councillor online form.

A full list of Committees and a Council Meetings Calendar are also available. Agendas, Reports and Minutes of meetings are available by using the meetings calendar. 

Councillors GuideThe Improvement and Development Agency have produced a Councillor's Guide for newly elected councillors. This guide would also be useful if you are thinking about becoming a councillor, or would simply like to know more about what being a councillor involves.
