Meet your councillor for North Town on Taunton Town Council

Caroline Ellis

I grew up and live in North Town, providing small scale social housing, community support and organising activities for home educating families. 

As your district councillor for the past 4 years I’ve won a ban on fracking, got public toilets re-opened, ‘Field in Trust’ status for French Weir Park and boosted Taunton’s arts and culture. Flook House is now a popular Arts Hub, Taunton Brewhouse funding is protected for next year, we have an iconic Dragon sculpture in our high street and ‘Gaia’ has been booked for Taunton Minster following the success of Museum of the Moon. 

The Town Council is a huge opportunity for Taunton. We must be brave, responsive, ambitious and bring residents into decision-making.
