Welcome

Welcome to the blog of the Warwick West Labour Team. Together, we are standing for election to Warwick District Council. We promise Warwick residents:

Homes that will meet local needs
Job opportunities for all our community
Supporting vibrant community and voluntary action
Keeping our district green and clean

The promises above were agreed by the group of Labour candidates and current councillors standing for the District Council. The promises are contained within our manifesto, which outlines what we promise to do for the residents of Warwick District if we gain control in May 2011.

So who are we? Rebecca Clarke is a HR professional who now runs a local business. She is a governor of Newburgh School and a mother of two pre-school aged boys. John Holland works in IT training and is a Director of Warwick Folk Festival. He was previously Chair of Warwickshire Association for the Blind and received an award for his work as a school governor. Catherine Stephens is a child protection lawyer who works with children and families in Warwick. Catherine works primarily within legal aid.

We are currently knocking on doors around Warwick West, chatting to residents about local issues. We are covering around 3 miles a night on foot, so look out for our red rosettes in your street.

We will use this blog to update you on our policies, campaign and local issues. If we are elected then we will publicise our regular surgeries here too.
