LOCAL Calderdale councillor Christine Bampton-Smith has been re-selected for a third time by the Liberal Democrat Branch, to contest the Luddenden Foot Ward in the District Council elections on May 1.
Councillor Mrs Bampton-Smith said: “It is an honour to be chosen again to stand in Luddenden Foot.
“In 2004 I was elected to serve this ward for a second time with a clear majority for the Liberal Democrats. As a ward councillor I have helped many local residents with issues and problems ranging from housing to litter and planning to flooding. I will continue to work hard both in the Town Hall and in the ward.
“I have lived in the ward for over thirty years and hope to be elected in May to continue to work for the community and campaign for change in Calderdale to make it a better place for everyone to live, work and enjoy.”
She added: “I am proud to be part of the Liberal Democrat team which works hard to help people with a wide range of concerns. The team has campaigned successfully on many issues that affect the local area. Commitment to the Ward is my promise.”
Councillor Bampton-Smith is married and has two grown up children. She works part-time at Leeds College of Art and Design.
