The Council

In existence since 1985

The Council is made up of 21 elected members that represent the community on a ward basis. These members make decisions on the services and activities provided throughout the town and liaise with Torfaen County Borough Council officers when any other issues of interest or concerns arise that directly affect the community of Pontypool and District.

In order for the Community Council to run smoothly and efficiently, a small and dedicated team of staff under the direction of the Clerk, work tirelessly to produce all the necessary administration, organisation and financial tasks that are demanded of them. Together with members all the hard work goes to making a difference in the Pontypool community.
