One of the key roles of a councillor is that of representing those who have voted for them. According to Robin Porter, Luton’s Returning Officer, Being a local councillor is an important and significant role in the life of our town. They play a massive part in ensuring local democracy is strong and vibrant. With their variety of backgrounds and understanding of what matters to people in Luton, they are well placed to make a positive impact on the life of residents….”. He added, “If you would like to be part of Luton’s exciting future, come along to this event and find out more.”
