All 16 Ivybridge Town Council and all 4 Ivybridge District Council seats are up for election on the 4th May 2023.

Local councils can only be as helpful, connected and energetic as the people elected to run them, so we need councillors who are capable, enthusiastic and engaged to reflect their communities. You can find out more about becoming a councillor on National Association of Local Councils, The Electoral Commission and Local Government Association websites.

The deadlines for the 2023 elections can be found here.
