People of Brant

The 'People of Brant' video series is a chance to highlight residents of the County of Brant who have overcome a struggle, created a new home, and/or contribute positively to the overall value and goodness of their community. We want to highlight longtime residents, our new neighbours, and everyone in between!

This is a chance to celebrate the diversity we have as a County! Every community has a story and the County of Brant is filled with many unique perspectives.

Do you have an interesting story or know someone in the County who would be wonderful to celebrate?  Email us and tell us your story!
