Welcome to the Web Site of Conservative Councillor Duncan Fairbairn; I am on Cumbria County Council and Allerdale Borough Council I am also a Parish Councillor on Aikton Parish Council.

Having now served some 12 years on the County Council, I have been on a number of Scrutiny Panels, being Chairman or Vice Chairman of some of them. There have been a variety of Task And Finish groups that I have been part of, including the those on Dentists, Local Hospitals, Teenage Pregnancy, Smoking, Children Look After, and Change to Digital TV to name but a few.

I have been an Allerdale councillor for 6 years plus and a Parish Councillor for at least 36 years, not all at the same Parish Council.

My interests are in supporting the youth of the area in their education and sport. I have for some time been involved in the well being of the Children Looked After in the County, and still see that as a priority in the Councils agenda. In the Cabinet at the County, I now have Children's Services in my Portfolio.

I am also on the Age Concern North West Cumbria Co. Board (a company limited by Guarrantee) and the North Allerdale Partnership Board (company limited by guarrantee), which is about Regeneration.

I hold surgeries in my Division monthly at:

Hesket Newmarket
Thursby
Kirkbride
Bowness (This may vary depending on school holidays and this means going to one of the other villages in the parish)
