Elected members and staff are proud to serve our local communities and work with them to promote the Vale of Glamorgan and its many attributes, whilst at the same time maintaining priority local services. The Council provides a wide range of services including schools, waste management, social care and planning, and elected members and staff work together to ensure services are provided to a high standard and meet the needs of our customers. The Vale of Glamorgan Council has 47 elected members or Councillors, each representing an electoral division, or ward. The Council is led by the Leader and Cabinet, a body of seven Councillors that makes key decisions about policy and budget. The Council's Chief Officers are divided into Directors, Heads of Service and Operational Managers. As service managers they make recommendations to, and are held accountable by the Cabinet.

Today is World Cancer Day 📅 This year’s campaign seeks to encourage communities to take action and advocate for people-centred cancer care 🙌 In the Vale, our care workers provide vital support for people needing at home care - including people living with cancer. This also includes assisting with palliative care for those who are nearing the end of their lives. This means that people can receive end-of-life care comfortably at home, rather than in a hospital setting 🏡 A big thank you to our care teams for their compassion and commitment to making a difference in the lives of those they care for ❤️ Heddiw yw Diwrnod Canser y Byd 📅 Mae'r ymgyrch eleni yn ceisio annog cymunedau i weithredu ac eirioli dros ofal canser sy'n canolbwyntio ar bobl 🙌 Yn y Fro, mae ein gweithwyr gofal yn darparu cefnogaeth hanfodol i bobl sydd angen gofal yn y cartref - gan gynnwys pobl sy'n byw gyda chanser. Mae hyn hefyd yn cynnwys cynorthwyo gyda gofal lliniarol i'r rhai sy'n agosáu at ddiwedd eu hoes. Mae hyn yn golygu y gall pobl dderbyn gofal diwedd oes yn gyfforddus gartref, yn hytrach nag mewn lleoliad ysbyty 🏡 Diolch yn fawr i'n timau gofal am eu tosturi a'u hymrwymiad i wneud gwahaniaeth ym mywydau'r rhai y maent yn gofalu amdanynt ❤️

We are delighted to unveil the latest Rainbow Bench 🌈 in our community, part of an ongoing pledge to support and celebrate equality for all. These benches serve as vibrant reminders of our collective commitment to values like tolerance, respect, and inclusion. As Cllr Ruba Sivagnanam said, “I hope people pause to sit and reflect on what it stands for and against.” This initiative is about more than a series of benches—it’s about fostering a sense of belonging and celebrating diversity. Together, we’re building a stronger, more inclusive community. 🏳️🌈 #EqualityAndInclusion #CommunityEngagement #Diversity Rydym yn falch iawn o ddadorchuddio'r Rainbow Mainc 🌈 diweddaraf yn ein cymuned, rhan o addewid barhaus i gefnogi a dathlu cydraddoldeb i bawb. Mae'r meinciau hyn yn atgoffa bywiog o'n hymrwymiad ar y cyd i werthoedd fel goddefgarwch, parch a chynhwysiant. Fel y dywedodd y Cynghorydd Ruba Sivagnanam, “Rwy'n gobeithio bod pobl yn oedi i eistedd a myfyrio ar yr hyn y mae'n sefyll o blaid ac yn erbyn.” Mae'r fenter hon yn ymwneud â mwy na chyfres o feincau-mae'n ymwneud â meithrin ymdeimlad o berthyn a dathlu amrywiaeth. Gyda'n gilydd, rydym yn adeiladu cymuned gryfach, mwy cynhwysol. 🏳️🌈 #EqualityAndInclusion #CommunityEngagement #Diversity
