ANY Maldon resident who has ever thought they could try their hand at being a county councillor may be interested in an online event where they can learn more about the role.

Taking place online, the free event will give prospective candidates the opportunity to find out more about the work county councillors do with their local communities. There will also be a chance to meet current county councillors.

The event comes ahead of Essex County Council elections due to be held next May.

Councillor David Finch, Leader of Essex County Council said: "Essex is one of the biggest council areas in the country, and councillors play an absolutely vital role in supporting our rich and diverse communities.

"While being a councillor is hugely demanding, the ability to make a difference and give something back to your local community is a wonderful opportunity.

"We have councillors of all ages and backgrounds, and through this event, we hope to give a little bit more information about what is involved in the day to day work of being a county councillor."

The event will take place on Tuesday, 17 November at 6.30pm via Zoom.
