Who we are

We are a group of local residents that meet on a monthly basis and we act as voices for our local area of Morningside.

Community Councils are created by national legislation and administered by local authorities.  There are over 40 CCs in Edinburgh. We act on behalf of local people to represent their views and promote our community. Our members are elected by residents or nominated by local organisations. We are non-party-political. Our local political representatives (Ward Councillors, MP, MSPs and MEP) are ex-officio members. They have no vote on the CC but we rely a lot on their help and advice.

What we do

We try to represent all the residents in Morningside. We talk to the City Council and other public bodies about local problems and try to get them resolved. So if you are bothered about anything, from uneven pavements to policing, contact us or come to a meeting and tell us about it. We try to take the majority view about local issues, but you can help by telling us what you think.
