Local councillors

Local Councillors are elected by the community to decide how the council should carry out its various activities.  They represent public interest as well as individuals living within the ward in which he or she has been elected to serve a term of office.

They have regular contact with the general public through council meetings, telephone calls or surgeries. Surgeries provide an opportunity for any ward resident to go and talk their councillor face to face and these take place on a regular basis.

Drylaw and Telford sits within the Inverleith Ward (Ward 5) and our local Councillors and their contact details can be found below.
