The move to two unitary authorities serving the north and west of the county has also led to the formation of new town councils, including in Wellingborough.

Wellingborough Town Council will meet for the first time tonight, bringing together the 23 councillors who were elected earlier this month.

They will serve the people of Wellingborough for the next four years.

The meeting is being held in the council chamber at Swanspool House, with items on the agenda including electing a chairman for 2021/22.
