They nominated recently at the former Magherafelt Council offices and were accompanied by Party Leader, Robin Swann MLA and Rosemary Barton MLA

In a statement the UUP said: "The May 2019 Local Council Elections will offer an opportunity for people to vote for those who will represent them, rather than reinforce division and separation in our society. In the absence of an NI Assembly this is the only avenue which people will be able to have their concerns addressed.
