Your Walcot and Park North Parish Council Team for 2019

Residents will have an opportunity to vote in the South Swindon Parish Council elections on May 2nd.

The Labour majority Parish Council has already made a difference to our area. It has provided grants to community groups, carried out much-needed work to Shaftesbury Lakes and campaigned to protect land near Coate Water from development. Dudmore Rd play area will be refurbished this year and Buckhurst Play Area & Skate Park will soon be transferred to the Parish Council.

Please support Labour’s candidates to continue their work in improving grass-cutting, play areas and supporting our local communities on planning matters.

You can vote for up to 4 Parish Councillors
