Peterlee Town Council is a local council serving the people of Peterlee, in east Durham. The Council consists of 22 elected Members and has a staff team of around 50, plus casual staff, coaches and volunteers. In summer 2018 we are also taking on 4 new apprentices in horticulture and business administration.
