Weston-super-Mare Town Council

Weston-super-Mare Town Council

Weston-super-Mare has grown from a fishing village of 180 inhabitants in 1810 to a major holiday resort of 80,000 people today!

Weston super Mare Town Council is the only democratically elected body exclusively representing the civil “parish” and people of Weston-super-Mare, including Worle and Uphill. Re-founded 2000 to carry out the civic role of the former borough abolished in 1974 which left Weston without its own Council, unlike any of the other 39 parishes in North Somerset.

There are 31 councillors elected every 4 years who take no allowances, as well as a small number of employed staff to implement their decisions. The Council is entirely independent of North Somerset Council and raises its own budget to spend on services and facilities. The Council is responsible to the people it represents, the local community.

Attending a council meeting is the best way to find out what we do. Please enjoy finding out more about the council by having a look round our website and social media channels.

Weston-super-Mare Town Council are developing it’s Play & Sports Strategy for Weston-super-Mare, and we really need your help!

We’re starting by looking at play and sports provision in and around Ashcombe Park, Clarence Park, Haywood Village, Coronation, Oldmixon & Walford Avenue Play Area (Worle).

If you or your family use these spaces, live nearby, or perhaps don’t use them because they don’t currently offer what you need, we really want to hear from you!

What works well? What could be improved? What needs maintaining? What is missing? And, most importantly, what would encourage you and your family to use these spaces more often?

Your feedback will help us understand what our local communities would like to see as we plan the future of play and sport across Weston-super-Mare. The more people we hear from, the better picture we’ll have of the future of Play and Sports facilities in Weston-super-M for the future.

HAVE YOUR SAY!

We’ve made it easy to share your views, with all of our surveys in one place! Simply choose the area (or areas!) that are relevant to you and complete the survey:

LET YOUNG PEOPLE HAVE THEIR SAY!

We also really want to hear directly from children and young people under 16. Their views are an important part of this work, so please encourage the young people in your family to have their say too:
