We are delighted to launch the new website for the Cornish Independent NonAligned Group. This site has been designed to give residents across Cornwall a clear, accessible window into the work of our independent councillors on Cornwall Council. Whether you want to find out who represents your division, read about our policy positions, or stay up to date with the latest council news, you will find it here.

The site includes profiles of each of our councillors, details of the committees they serve on, and information about the issues they are championing on behalf of their communities. Our news section will carry regular updates on council business, and our policies pages set out the principles that guide our work across housing, the environment, the local economy, transport, and governance.

Spring Council Session: Key Highlights

Fri, 20 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000

The spring session of Cornwall Council saw a busy programme of debate, scrutiny, and decision-making. CING councillors played an active role throughout, raising questions on behalf of their communities and pressing the administration on a number of important issues.

During the full council meeting, our members tabled questions on the state of road maintenance across the county, highlighting the growing backlog of repairs and the impact on rural communities in particular. The responses from the cabinet member acknowledged the scale of the challenge, and we will continue to press for a credible plan to address it in the coming budget cycle.

Upcoming Community Engagement Events

CING councillors are committed to being visible and accessible in the communities they represent. Over the coming weeks, several of our members will be holding drop-in sessions and community meetings across the county, and we warmly invite residents to attend.

These events are an opportunity to raise local concerns directly with your councillor, hear about current council business, and find out how CING is working on the issues that matter to you. Whether it is a pothole on your road, a planning application in your neighbourhood, or a broader question about council policy, no issue is too small or too large to bring along. Our councillors are there to listen, and wherever possible, to act.
