The Community Council is made up of members of the community of Magor with Undy.  We are elected by the public to serve a term of four years.  We give our time on a voluntary basis and are not paid for the work we do.  The Council does have the following paid employees.  Miss Beverly Reed, Clerk of the Community Council and two village wardens.

Meetings are held on the first Monday of each month, alternating between Undy Church and Community Hall, and the Magor Church Centre.  At these meetings, we go through the agenda (which is displayed on the Community Council notice boards in the village as well as on this site), and deal with any matters arising from the previous months meetings.  There is also time set aside during which residents in the community may ask the Community Council to discuss any issues which concern them.
