Bridlington Town Council have voted unanimously to appoint Cllr Angela Walker as Mayor of the town for the 2025-26 civic year.
Angela is a life long resident of Bridlington and her husband Hraham will be her consort for the year.
She worked as a nurse at Bridlington Hospital for 32 years before retiring.
Angela then volunteered with Age UK and now serves as a trustee at New Pasture Lane Community Centre and is a member of the Bridlington Health Forum.
In 2022, Angela was elected as a town councillor and was Deputy Mayor for 2024/25 whilst Cllr Rick Arrand served as town mayor.
Said Angela: “I’m delighted to be Mayor of Bridlington for 2025-2026,
with husband Graham as my consort.
“We look forward to supporting the Bread Shed at New Pasture Lane Community Centre and MND Association Yorkshire Coast Group as my official charities through fundraising events such as afternoon teas, race nights and bingo.
Elected as the Deputy Mayor was Cllr Ray Pollard who will stand in for Angela at civic engagements throughout the year. He will be assisted by his consort Doreen Sharp.
