Md Oliur Rahman
Labour councillor for Caledonian
Term started: 7 May 2026
I am a council tenant living in the Cally for 30 years with my wife and children. I have been a dedicated community activist for over 20 years helping residents with housing, education, health, employment and citizenship. In recognition of my volunteering during the pandemic I was awarded the British Empire Medal for outstanding community service. I am an NHS worker and have served as a school governor and charity chair. I want to make sure our neighbourhood is cleaner, safer and more connected community for everyone.
