Sam Johnston

Councillor for St Peter's Ward

Deputy Whip

I served as Deputy Chairman (Political) - a wide-ranging brief that gave me responsibilities from campaigns and policy to maintaining this website.

Moreover, I am also a councillor for St. Peter's Ward. Residents can contact me with casework via email at cllr.sam.johnston@sunderland.gov.uk

Outside of politics, I previously helped to run a business that reached the national final of the Young Enterprise competition and I am currently a student at Newcastle University.
