Find out more about being a city councillor in Brighton & Hove

On May 2, 2019, residents will choose the councillors they want to represent them on Brighton & Hove City Council for the next four years.

BY becoming a local councillor you become a decision maker for your local area and a voice for residents in the city. But first, you must stand for election.

Nominations for candidates open on Monday March 25 and must be submitted by April 3.

The council is holding an information session this Friday morning (March 22) for potential candidates and agents to go along and find out more about the election process, the council and being a councillor.

The council’s Chief Executive Geoff Raw will explain about the nomination process, as well as explaining about the services the council provides.

If you want to attend RSVP to democratic.services@brighton-hove.gov.uk as soon as possible.

If you need any assistance at the sessions contact the Democratic Services team on 01273 291066.
