Electoral Wards and Community Councils
Electoral Wards
The Scottish Borders is divided into eleven Electoral Wards for the purpose of local representation in Scottish Borders Council.
All Electoral Wards elect three or four Elected Members every four years in our elections to represent local interests and local services.
Elected Members also attend Community Council meetings.
Berwickshire Locality comprises two Electoral Wards:
- East Berwickshire
- Mid Berwickshire
Visit our Council wards webpage for details of all wards.
Community Councils
Community Councils are designed to give every community in Scottish Borders an opportunity to be consulted and listened to by us, via their Elected Members.
Every household in the Scottish Borders is in a Community Council Area.
Details of the 21 Community Councils in Berwickshire can be found on our website.
