Tonight is the Annual General Meeting of Bury Liberal Democrats, taking place from 7pm at Elton Liberal club. All members of the local party are welcome, as is anyone else who would like to join.

Tonight marks the end of my year as Membership Secretary. The year has seen our membership continue to rise, and it is more or less double what it was not much more than 12 months ago. Bury Lib Dems are a party on the up. Two more Councillors this year, and hopefully more to come in 2008. More successful campaigns, more successes locally for the people who have elected us. And a bright year ahead with the new Executive who will be elected tonight.

Their responsibility is a tough one – to develop the party to support and challenge the Councillors, develop the Membership and keep the party moving forward. But the core of our local party is strong and dedicated. And we’ll keep on achieving. And with your help we can achieve more. If you want to help us locally or join the Lib Dems just get in touch or use the links on the right. We are always looking for new Members and helpers, and it’s the only way we can bring Lib Dem policies and ideas to Bury.

Tonight is the night where the party gets its annual boost and a new team for the year to come. Its new faces to keep the progress going. And you can be part of it if you want. Just get in touch and join us making Bury better.
