HORWICH BY-ELECTION
Introducing our fantastic local candidate for Horwich North, Wendy Parkinson.
I am proud to stand as Reform UK’s candidate for Horwich North. Having lived and worked locally for many years, I care deeply about our community, where my children and grandchildren also live and attend school.
Over the years, I have supported a range of good causes through fundraising and voluntary work. This has included raising money for specialist equipment and respite care for children, as well as supporting various animal charities. I am also actively involved in addressing local parking issues that are affecting residents in Horwich.
I believe Bolton Council should be focused on open and transparent financial management, with taxpayers’ money spent wisely rather than wasted on vanity projects. I will be a strong voice for local residents and businesses, ensuring their concerns are heard at Bolton Council. I will also challenge inappropriate planning proposals that threaten the character of Horwich while supporting development that genuinely benefits our community.
Everyone deserves to feel safe in their neighbourhood. I am committed to tackling anti-social behaviour and crime, protecting our parks and green spaces, and ensuring that roads and pavements are properly maintained.
I am standing because I understand the everyday challenges facing local people and want to see Horwich North thrive. If elected, I will work hard on your behalf to protect what makes our community special and help build an even better future for current and future generations.
Your vote for Reform UK can truly make the difference. By electing just one more councillor to reach our goal of 11, we will become the official opposition. This crucial step gives our community a much stronger, clearer voice to champion your priorities in the council chamber.
