QPCC Councillors 2022-2026

Become a Councillor

On 21st September we issued notice of a casual vacancy – meaning there is a vacant seat on the Councillor.

The Community was informed of it’s right to call a by-election to elect a new Councillor to represent the Community. As a by-election was not triggered, the Council will now co-opt a member to fill this vacancy.

Co-option will take place at an extra-ordinary meeting of the Council on Wednesday 15th November, during which the existing eleven Councillors will vote to appoint a new Councillor from among those residents that have put themselves forward to become a member of the Council.

Any resident of the Queen’s Park, Westminster Community, or those with clear and identifiable ties to the Community can put themselves forward to become a Councillor.

At the extra-ordinary meeting, Councillors will consider the information provided by each candidate  and may ask each candidate questions to help inform their decision.  A vote will take place to appoint the new Councillor, after which, the appointed will sign a declaration of acceptance of office and will officially commence their duties as a Queen’s Park Community Councillor.

If you wish to express interest in being co-opted, you can do so by completing this online form.

Interested persons should read the following pages on the Council’s website to better understand the role of Councillors and the Council.
