Cwmbran Community Council was formed following the reorganisation of Local Government in 1974 and is one of the largest Community (town) Councils in Wales. Covering the main part of Cwmbran, the Council serves approximately 30,000 residents.
As a democratically-elected statutory body the Council raises its funds through setting an annual ‘precept’ which is collected by Torfaen County Borough Council and passed on to the Community Council. The Council then uses this money on a wide variety of services in the community. You can read about these services on this website.
The Council comprises 19 Councillors or “members” (representing you on a ward by ward basis) who make decisions on the services and activities provided and, in their representational capacity, liaise with their County Borough Council colleagues to deal with other issues of interest and concern such as consultation on planning applications. Details can be found on the “Your Councillors” part of this site.
The Council is serviced and supported by a small team of dedicated staff, Clerk to the Council. The team undertakes all the necessary administrative, organisational and financial tasks, in accordance with the Council’s wishes and aspirations to provide services for all age ranges and situations, based on regular contact with the community.
