Focus on West Heywood Ward

Delivering for Darn Hill, Heap Bridge, Heywood, and Summit

Liberal Democrats believe that our citizens and our communities are the foundation of our democracy. It is from our citizens and communities that Councillors and MPs receive their authority, and they should represent the needs and views of the communities they represent in the Council Chamber or in Parliament.

Tom Shaw and the West Heywood Focus Team work tirelessly all year round to help people across Darn Hill, Heap Bridge, Heywood, and Summit with both personal problems and community issues, and we keep our community informed with our regular Focus Newsletters. 

If you have a problem or issue that you think Tom Shaw and the West Heywood Liberal Democrat Focus Team might be able to help you with then you can contact us:

Tom Shaw's 2026 Residents' Survey

Our leaflets are paid for by donations from members and helpers, and our campaigning is run and done by local people like you. The Liberal Democrats do not receive any help or support from Trades Unions or big businesses. That is why we are able to campaign and speak freely about the issues affecting our area, and to support the interests of our local community.

If you appreciate the work Tom, and the local team, are doing here in Heywood then you could support them by volunteering to deliver a few leaflets locally, please sign up here!
