Join our webinar to help newly elected councillors understand their new role and start with confidence. This session provides a clear introduction to life as a councillor, what to expect in the first weeks and months, and how to navigate the responsibilities of elected office.
The session explains the key duties of a councillor, how councils operate, and how to balance casework, meetings, and community representation. It also highlights where to find support, guidance, and good practice as you begin your term.
This session is:
- Practical – focused on real responsibilities and day-to-day expectations
- Supportive – helping new councillors feel confident and prepared
- Clear – breaking down council structures, roles, and procedures
It’s the ideal starting point for newly elected councillors looking to begin their role informed, organised, and ready to serve their community.
