Stephen Atkinson
Leader Lancashire County Council
Stephen Atkinson
I am a proud Lancastrian and leader of Lancashire County Council. Since 2015 I have dedicated my political career to upholding local traditions and improving prosperity and equality throughout the Ribble Valley.
Being leader of Lancashire County Council is a great honour. It’s incredibly rewarding – it’s tiring and they’re long days. I also head up Reform UK at the Local Government Association. I’m working very hard and part of a great team of 53 Reform UK councillors who really believe in what we’re doing for Lancashire and our great people.
I'm the second longest leader of Ribble Valley Council, a founding member of the Lancashire Combined County Authority and previous LEP Director. I have been a resident of Wilpshire for 15 years, Mellor for 11 years and Brockhall snce 2015.
I look forward to your comments.
