Councillor Michael Siddle was elected as the 15th Mayor of Bishop Auckland for 2022-23.
Councillor Siddle said “I am delighted to have been elected and to represent the town of Bishop Auckland where I have lived all my life. My wife and I look forward to meeting residents, visitors and community groups over the next 12 months.
During my time as Mayor of Bishop Auckland I have chosen to raise money for Daisy Arts a local community art organisation based in Bishop Auckland who help encourage and provide artistic and creative activities and the monies raised will focus on projects to helping youths.
The Mayor would like to hear from communities and organisations about achievements and celebrations and would endeavour to attend. If the Mayor is unable to attend then the Deputy mayor will endeavour to attend.
