Your Independents

Meet the team putting Lincolnshire First

An experienced network of Supporters and Independent Councillors across Lincolnshire’s Town, District and County Councils

Welcome!

The Lincolnshire Independents each retain their freedom and respected right to be completely independent in their views and aspirations, and in particular, exercising their vote.

Members support each other where they can, and no party-political whipping system is in place or allowed.

Members remain Independent, but not isolated, with a fantastic team of supporters. Independents work together and remain free to think, speak and vote for the communities we serve.
