Councillors are elected by the community to decide how we should carry out various activities. They are a vital part of our decision-making process. They are a crucial link between the council and the public. They often hold surgeries in their wards to find community pain points. Harrow is divided into 22 wards. Each ward is represented by either two or three councillors.
