All those elected in May this year were mentioned in the summing up of the results by Jon Arnott at ukip.org which was replicated on this forum as the results of the elections were widely discussed here. Defectors such as Mr Reilly and Mr Pickles had articles all of their own at ukip.org which were also replicated here as their defections were widely discussed here. I clearly recall seeing an article on councillor Howard at ukip.org but as that defection happened some time ago I don't know if that was replicated here. Mr Allison is very well known within UKIP.
ukip.org does not report the day to day activities of any of those councillors and it would be crazy for them to do so. I have no interest in most planning appliactions within Sutton Council, for example. I would hope all those councillors do communicate as appropriate with their residents. On issues of substance & wider interest ukip.org has you will recall reported now ex-UKIP councillor Malcolm Davis' campaign regarding a proposed mosgue within Dudley.
