By Matthew Hancock-Bruce 27th Feb 2026
Do you want to be the next Mayor's Cadet?
Applications are now open for the prestigious role for the 2026/27 civic year.
The Mayor's Cadet supports the Town Mayor at civic engagements throughout the year, attends important community events, and acts as an ambassador for Congleton's young people.
Congleton Town Council is encouraging youth organisations, schools, sports clubs, performing arts groups and community groups to share the opportunity widely and support young people in putting themselves forward.
The current Mayor's Cadet, Haru Pepper, said: "Being Mayor's Cadet has been absolutely fantastic. I've had the chance to attend so many different events, meet inspiring people and represent young people in Congleton.
"It has really built my confidence and given me experiences I'll never forget.
"I would strongly encourage anyone who is thinking about applying to go for it — it's such a special opportunity."
Applicants must be aged 14-18 during the term of appointment and a resident of the Congleton parish.
Applications must be completed by the young person themselves and submitted via the online form by Friday, April 10.
The successful applicant will be formally appointed at the Mayor Making Ceremony at Congleton Town Hall on Thursday, May 21, and will serve for the full civic year.
