Winton East is an electoral ward in the northern suburbs of the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole unitary authority in England, covering the eastern side of the district of Winton not far from Bournemouth town centre. The area is largely residential, characterised by Victorian and Edwardian terraces and a busy local shopping parade along Wimborne Road, with good bus links to the seafront and nearby university campuses.

The ward elects councillors to the authority created in 2019 and supports a mixed community of families, young professionals and long‑standing residents. Its local economy is driven by small shops, cafés and services, and the neighbourhood has a strong community feel with active residents’ groups and periodic local events reflecting Winton’s suburban heritage.
