Derbyshire Dales Liberal Democrats
A Strong Local Voice
We aim to become the largest party on Derbyshire Dales District Council & Derbyshire County Council but to do that we need people to stand as Lib Dem candidates at every election. Are you willing to help us achieve our goal and make Derbyshire and Derbyshire Dales fairer, greener and more Liberal? If you will consider standing as a candidate, please get in touch with Roger Shelley, our local party chair and DDDC Councillor. He is happy to have an informal chat with no obligation and can explain what is involved and the extensive support & training that we can provide. Contact Roger by phone or text on 07887 380334.
Derbyshire Dales Liberal Democrats
Our local party covers the Westminster Constituency of Derbyshire Dales and Derbyshire Dales District Council.
A Progressive Alliance on DDDC
We are the largest party on DDDC and we lead Derbyshire Dales District Council governing in a Progressive Alliance.
Steve Flitter, the Leader of the Liberal Democrats on DDDC said - We are delighted to come together as 3 progressive Parties to offer the residents and businesses of the Derbyshire Dales a new approach to local politics. We know that our District faces many challenges, not least the cost of living crisis, the shortage of affordable housing for our young families and the threat to our environment from new developments and pollution.
Working together we will support our communities in the best and most effective way, and provide them with genuinely value-for-money services.
