There has never been a better time to be a Conservative councillor.
It is a uniquely rewarding experience where you can make a real difference to your local community. With just over 7,000 Conservative councillors in England, we have considerable influence locally and nationally.
But what does it mean to be a Conservative councillor?
Conservatives across the United Kingdom are working hard to build a country where people have more opportunity and power over their lives; a country where families are stronger and society is more responsible; and a Britain which is safer and greener. Conservative councils can be trusted to deliver high quality, value for money public services.
You can help be a part of this by standing as a Conservative Champion in your area.
Perhaps you are already involved in your local community and want to take the next step. Or you may be looking for a worthwhile and rewarding way to help your local neighbourhood. Either way this booklet should help you decide whether to take the plunge and stand for election as a Conservative to your local council.
You may already have an idea of the type of people who stand as councillors, but this image could be outdated. You could be the fresh new talent that your council is looking for.
