The Central Area, Ipswich is one of five administrative areas in Ipswich, through which Ipswich Borough Council divides its spending and enables feedback from local residents, businesses and community groups.[1]
The area is composed of three wards, each represented by three councillors. Each ward is also a Middle Layer Super Output Area (MSOA). As of the 2019 Ipswich Borough Council election, the councillors are as follows:[2]
| Ward | Councillor | Councillor | Councillor | MSOA |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Alexandra | Adam Rae | John Cook | Jane Riley | Ipswich 007[3] |
| St Margaret's | Oliver Holmes | Inga Lockington | Timothy Lockington | Ipswich 005[4] |
| Westgate | Carole Jones | Colin Kreidewolf | Julian Gibbs | Ipswich 006[5] |
These Councillors form the Central Area Committee of which Julian Gibbs is the chair. They are joined by three Suffolk County Councillors:[2]
| Ward | Councillor |
|---|---|
| Bridge Division, Suffolk | Rob Bridgeman |
| St Helen's Division, Suffolk | Elizabeth Johnson |
| St Margaret's and Westgate Division, Suffolk | Debbie Richards |
The area is also covered by a Neighbourhood Watch network which comprises 35 neighbourhood watch schemes.[6]
