Welcome To the Driffield Town Council

Sign / Preview Our Guestbook

The Council is made up of 16 councillors who all live within the parish of Driffield and Little Driffield. The councillors are all unpaid and give their time and commitment free to the town.
The Town Council works to protect, promote and progress the economic, environmental, social and cultural well being of the people of Driffield. We work in partnership with various agencies to fulfil our aims, including the East Riding of Yorkshire Council and voluntary and professional organisations. The Town Council works hard to ensure that the town, and its inhabitants, receives the best possible service from the East Riding of Yorkshire Council and often provides a vital link between the people and the officers. The Council is funded by the precept, an amount included in the council tax paid to the East Riding of Yorkshire Council. The councillors are here to help all parishioners with queries and concerns.

The Town Councillors can be contacted through the Town Council office on 01377 254160.
