Mayor and Deputy Mayor
At a meeting of Annual General Meeting of Mid and East Antrim Borough Council on 2 June 2025, Councillor Jackson Minford (UUP) and Cllr Tyler Hoey (DUP) were appointed Mayor and Deputy Mayor respectively.
Mayor Councillor Jackson MinfordThis is a responsibility I take with great pride, and I am committed to doing my utmost to serve every corner of our Borough. I look forward to working with the new Deputy Mayor to represent our communities with integrity and dedication. Our Borough has so much to offer – from our vibrant towns and villages to our strong industrial base and outstanding natural beauty. Over the next year, I aim to champion initiatives that support our local economy, promote tourism and strengthen community ties. It will also be a privilege to meet and support the many volunteers, community leaders and organisations that are the heartbeat of our area. I’ll be selecting a charity of the year soon and hope to use my term to shine a spotlight on its work and help raise valuable funds. |

I believe in the power of partnership, and by working together across political and community lines, we can deliver meaningful progress for everyone in Mid and East Antrim. |
