THE DOUGLAS VALLEY

Douglas Community Council (incorporating Glespin and surrounding areas) operates for the benefit of the citizens residing and / or working within the Douglas and Glespin areas and was established on 15th June 2004.

The DCC (Douglas Community Council) meets every second Monday of each month at 7.30pm in the St Brides Centre, Douglas and the Glespin Community Hall, in monthly rotation.

The DCC membership structure is made up of four elected + two nominated from Douglas area and two elected + one nominated from Glespin area, who have to be either a resident, a member of an organisation which has an interest in the area, or work within the Community Council boundary. The MP, MSP and Councillor make up the remaining ex-officio membership.
