Local election results

Congratulations to Richard Pope and Erion Xhaferaj who were re-elected to Bixley and Castle Hill Wards respectively, and also to Nathan Wilson who won in Stoke Park Ward, following the retirement of the previous Conservative councillor Bob Hall.

Sadly Liz Harsant was unable to retain her seat in Holywells Ward after 22 years service.

Our thanks go to Liz and Bob for their many years of dedicated time in their wards.

Liz remains the County Councillor for Gainsborough Division.
