About Hedge End Town Council
Hedge End Town Council has grown alongside the town it serves.
In 2023 (before the May Local Elections) Hedge End was divided into four new Town Council wards and is now served by 18 Councillors: Kings Copse (5 Councillors), Village (5), Berry (4) and Park (4)(see below).
The new wards provide a more equal balance between Councillors and electors. Consultations were carried out by Eastleigh Borough Council at the end of last
year.
Eastleigh Borough Council provides services from the civic offices in Eastleigh and via its Local Area Committees.
The local MP for Eastleigh is currently Paul John Holmes (Conservative).
Within our system of government, Hedge End Town Council is the first tier of local government and is, therefore, closest to the
community.
There are democratic structures within Hedge End Town Council which give all members a chance to take part in decision making. As there are too many decisions to be made by the whole council sitting together, most are delegated to Committees.
