Do you know which ward you live in?

So, do you know who your Councillor is and which ward you live in? Or do you simply not care?

I do. Thanks for the info regarding the ward you're fighting. I've done lots of searching for a Hyndburn map showing all the wards, but can't find a detailed one, anyone got any links?

I think I might have given myself a bit too much territory - it doesn't quite start at the railway bridge but a bit further in - same principle though!

I saw one in the foyer of the library earlier this year along side of a gallery of the councillors. I would have thought either the Town Hall or the Library would fore fill you needs rindy?

Re: Do you know which ward you live in?

If we are not sure of our ward how can you be sure who your local and county councillers are? This would pose a quandry if you need their help with an issue. There has to be something somewere on the lines of entwisi's oracle or are the council and its councillers only wouried about it at election time?

It's not quite good enough because it's not a map, but here's a list of councillors and wards

Thanks Yerself, that's a really great map site.
Hopefully it will go in Gayle's favour that Peter Britcliffe doesn't actually live in the ward he represents, yet she does.

I know my councillor and my ward, and vote at every election.I have called on my councillor for help in the past, and he has been most helpful in getting results to my requests.
