Robert Court - Derbyshire Dales
Robert Court lives in Foolow and is our parliamentary spokesperson for Derbyshire Dales, which in 2024 includes the Hilton and Hatton districts of South Derbyshire.
The General Election gave you an opportunity to vote for change at national level. Change to a fairer society - fairer to nurses, teachers, carers and farmers. Fairer votes: we don’t have to go on using a voting system shared in Europe only by Belarus.
You can contact Robert at robertcourt.libdems@gmail.com.
Lucy Care is our Parliamentary Spokesperson for South Derbyshire
Lucy Care is an experienced politician and is monitoring what is happening in Westminster and making representation on behalf of South Derbyshire.
Lucy has been an active Liberal Democrat for over 30 years. She worked as an engineer before being elected as a councillor to Derbyshire County Council when her children were young. She has since been a well-respected councillor in Derby.
Lucy says “I share many people’s frustration with politics. I have learnt that it is easier to change things from the ‘inside’. Please help me to push for a fairer, greener society now, and for the future.
Our Councillors
We have 2 councillors on South Derbyshire District Council (SDDDC) Both were elected in June 2023
Grahame Andrew
I was first elected to South Derbyshire District Council on 15th June 2023. Having worked in and around local government for 37 years both as a senior/chief officer and more lately as a consultant. I am intent on bringing my experience of working on the "inside" to assist my local residents and the organisation as a whole. Having spent over two years on Hilton Parish getting to grips with local issues, I will seek to work with other elected members for improved services not just in Hilton, but across South Derbyshire. I think my perspective of working with local government employees and managers at a variety of East Midlands Councils will help in achieving good outcomes for all.
