Local Party officers are invited to join our regional campaign team for an evening briefing on January 26th, chaired by London Assembly Member Hina Bokhari. During this session we talk about what is being done to support local parties in the run up to the London Local Elections, upcoming resources currently being worked on, and how you can get in touch with us.

With all-up local elections fast closing, the London region, LDHQ and ALDC are joining forces to offer a full day Election Planning Workshop. If you’re a start-up, development or moving forward local party you can come along and get training and mentoring from staff and experienced volunteers, and a forum to think ahead to May and make preparations. In particular we will be focusing on getting the message right in our new political world, and planning for the intensity of the final six weeks of the campaign in April and May.

It is that time of the month again - our regular round of political chat and beverages at the Jack Horner.  Hopefully see lots of you there - both new and regular faces!

Pubs are a British institution and the backbone of many communities all over the country.   

The Music industry is an £8bn industry which is currently growing faster than the economy at 5% in 2025. 

But both industries face significant challenges.

Energy bills, inflation and other factors closed an average of one pub every day in 2025.   This is costing jobs, costing the economy, and damaging communities. 

Brexit red tape, lost venues, and AI are just three of the issues making it ever harder to earn a living as a grassroots musician.  And if the grassroots sector collapses, the future of music in the UK will be at risk.

Both industries are in a position to help each other and themselves at the same time.  And as Liberal Democrats we can help both of them. 

From Campaigners to councillors and up to MPs  - we can all champion local venues, local pubs and local musicians. 

Join our event to find out how.  

Speakers include Sarah Olney MP - Business Spokesperson, and Sophie Asquith from the Music Venues Trust.  

There will be guest performances from Sarah Olney MP & Cllr Charlie Clinton, as well as other guests.

All proceeds will go towards funding campaigning in the Local Elections.   

The London Liberal Democrats are working to stand as many candidates across London. We want everyone across the capital to have the opportunity to vote for Liberal Democrat candidates.  

Sign up for this to confirm that you or your local party collecting nominations for us to stand Liberal Democrats candidates
