Dominic McDonough

Councillor for St Chad's Ward
Deputy Chairman (Political)

I was delighted to be re-elected as Conservative Councillor for the communities of Herrington, Farringdon and Lakeside Village in 2023. 

I really enjoy being a City Councillor and it has allowed me to help a number of people throughout the community with a range of problems. I have also taken the lead on a number of projects around mental health and suicide prevention in the city, ensuring that people are supported through difficult times.

Outside of the Civic Centre, I work for a local charity and in my spare time I enjoy amateur dramatics, history, walking and I am a recognised expert on the Eurovision Song Contest."
