Local elections will take place on Thursday 6 May 2021. These will be to elect:

• Mayor of Bristol
• Bristol City Council Councillors
• Avon and Somerset Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC)
• Combined Authority Mayor for the West of England (WECA)

It’s likely that our doors will be knocked upon over the next few weeks, with candidates and supporters eager to get our votes. AGB works closely with our local Councillors, so it’s important to us that those elected (a) understand the issues important to our residents and business owners, and (b) can deliver achievable improvements and solutions.

Here’s a list of the candidates standing in May’s local election. At the time of writing, we can’t find a link to the Conservative candidates.
