Hello from the MDNP Executive.

Hello members and anyone else dropping in

The CLP recently held its AGM and a new Executive Committee has been voted in. There was a major changing of the guard, although through no more than through coincidence. Some Executive members had been in post for several years and felt it was time for a change, and others had time pressures which meant they had to step down. So we give a big thank you to Ashley Rowlands, ex Chair, Maryanne Pike, ex Secretary, Viv Arkell, ex Treasurer, Tanya Alexander ex Womens Officer, and Jeff Hart ex Policy Officer for their hard work and commitment over the past several years. .

The new Executive is Corinna Smart Chair, Dave Moore Vice Chair, Declan Stones, Secretary and Candice Johnson-Coles Womens Officer. All the above were voted in unanimously. We have a new Treasurer in the pipeline, but to be confirmed. All paperwork from the AGM including the minutes and Officer reports will be circulated shortly.

The new Chair tabked the outgoing members, and said that she looked forward to an active 2026, with increased links with our local CLPs and more social events. It was pointed out that we have the local elections for Town Councils coming up in May, Bournemouth, Poole and Broadstone, and we have three seats to fight for in Broadstone and Canford Heath that fall within our constituency.

EVENTS

The next CLP meeting will be on the 23rd February. Come and join us at the Kings Head in the Square at Wimborne from 7pm onwards.

Supporting the Labour Party in Mid Dorset & North Poole

If you’d like to play a part in our local community and campaign for Labour, this is a good place to start. We are a lively and active constituency determined to provide an alternative voice.

This is where you can find out how to campaign to get Labour candidates elected, support the causes we believe in, and raise money for campaigning. We come from all walks of life and all sections of the community.

We get together at monthly constituency meetings to discuss policy, hear from invited speakers and regularly hold social events. We have close links with the other CLPs within the Dorset and Bournemouth Poole and Christchurch Council areas.

We also hold social events and have community meetings more closely linked to the various neighbourhoods that make up the constituency. We try to listen and learn from those in our community about local issues, which shapes how we influence Labour Party policy.
