Bristol Post
|October 14, 2025
THE new deputy mayor of the West of England region will get a hefty pay rise despite doing little work.
-
The role will rotate between the leaders of the three councils in the area who will get paid an extra £19,300 for occasionally chairing meetings when the mayor is unavailable. For the past few years the West of England Combined Authority has not had a deputy mayor. Former mayor Dan Norris chose not to have a deputy, but new mayor Helen Godwin decided to bring back the role.
