Keeping Residents In Touch

The role of District Councillor has changed dramatically since the year 2000. Government policy and public awareness has meant that Councillors need to be more accountable than ever before to their electorate. Technology has also moved on and in Heyhouses your Conservative Councillors are at the forefront of adopting e-mail alerts, Blogs and Newsletters such as the Heyhouses Harrier to keep you up to date. Our monthly mobile Ward surgeries are also a vital face to face opportunity for residents to keep in touch with us. Finally the Heyhouses Branch committee, made up of volunteers, plays a vital supporting role in campaigning and fund raising. If you would like to play a more active role in your area and would like to become part of the team, then please get in touch. We hope you enjoy the Blog.

New Team Member for Ward committee

This week saw the arrival of a new recruit to the Heyhouses Ward Conservative Committee, Mr Craig Halewood. Craig has a keen intrest in politics and will be helping Conservative candidates with campaigning on the run up to the May elections. Craig has lived on the Fylde Coast all his life and is about to move into St annes, he works at BAE Systems in Warton.

Keith Hyde has been working with Groundworks this week on the consultation for Waddington Park and has also led the budget setting process in the Town Hall by considering budget bids.

I was invited to speak on Wednesday night at the Civic Awareness seminar held at Lytham YMCA.. Conservatives as well as other political groups groups were invited to speak about how their respective groups operated within the Town Hall. The Conservatrives are the only group to hold regular meetings to dicuss local issues raised in their wards.

The Conservatives have launched a recruitment campaign this week to find District candidates for Rural Wards. If you know anyone who may be intrested in becoming a Conservative Councillor please get them to contact the Fylde Conservative Office on 01772 671533. Thanks!
