Woking Lib Dems recently hosted the fantastically successful sell out South East Regional Lib Dem Conference BDB school Woking. Highlights include an inspiring speach from Tim Farron and excellent debate lead by Sal Brinton.
After a reduction in Council size across Woking, Lib Dems are proud to announce that we have won all the seats in Hoe Valley, One in St Johns and Mount Hermon and two in Goldsworth Park.
So many people are asking us about the closed Kingfiled post office that we have just launched an online version of our paper petition that went out two weeks ago here http://wokinglibdems.org.uk/…/kingfield-post-office-online-… to make it easier for local people to add their names digitally. We must put pressure on the Post Office to reopen a local branch. It is not impossible as both Send and Ripley have lost thier local post offices in the last year and post office counters have in both cases found a home for new local post offices in other local shops after the closure of their stand alone post offices.
The Liberal Democrats have warned the closure of Redhill Magistrates' Court and Reigate County Court threatens to undermine access to justice for local people across Surrey.
Local Lib Dems are campaigning for more health facilities to be provided in Woking when Woking Hospice moves to its new facility in Goldsworth Park.
The Lib Dems have called on Woking Borough Council to fully distribute money earmarked to support vulnerable people in Woking.
Tim Farron Visited Woking Woking College for a discussion and questions about the EU Referendum. It was excellent to hear so many young people asking about & understanding the positive reasons for staying in, freedom to travel, excellent negotiating ability as a block rather than a single country on the outside & green policies pushing for a cleaner world over a much larger area than just us on our own, rather than the negative out ideas pushed by some.
The Lib Dems have been campaigning to give 16 and 17 year olds the vote for sometime now. Unfortunately, the Conservative Government has refused to allow young people the vote in the upcoming European Referendum - but the Lib Dems are now pushing to allow 16 and 17 year olds the vote in local elections.

For too long, years of neglect and mismanagement by the previous Conservative Government have pushed our prison system into a deep crisis.
The Liberal Democrats have long championed proportional representation, advocating for a voting system where every vote truly counts. We believe that reforming our electoral system is crucial for a fairer democracy and better governance.
We believe everyone deserves high-quality healthcare, accessible when and where it’s needed and free at the point of use.
The Liberal Democrats have laid out a bold and ambitious plan to restore the UK’s natural environment and ensure that everyone can access a clean, healthy, and thriving green space.
For many people, Buy Now Pay Later is a useful and convenient solution, offering them flexibility with their purchases. But consumers need stronger protections.
With the right investment, we have the opportunity to turn things around and ensure that every child, regardless of their background, has the chance to succeed.
Liberal Democrats want to fix our broken relationship with Europe. Giving young people the opportunity to live, study and work in Europe is a vital first step.
