Welcome To Tredegar Town Council

Election Year for Local Government in Wales. The Election Years now run in a five year cycle with the Elections normally held in May of that year. Both Blaenau Gwent County Borough and Tredegar Town Councillors will be elected to serve for a period of five years. The previous Election Year was 2017 with the next Election Year being 2022. All Town Councillors are unpaid and receive no monetary benefits from their role.

They are required to attend the two monthly meetings of full Council - on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month except during recess in August - plus any other meetings for sub-committees or outside organisations for which they may have been nominated to sit on. Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council will publish a Notice of Election for the three Town Council Wards not later then the end of March of in the Election Year.

Anyone wishing to stand in Sirhowy, Tredegar Central & West or Georgetown need first to check that they are eligible - usually this means that they are on the Electoral Register - and can get a Proposer and Seconder to sign their nomination…
