Dear Friends
2010 is destined to be a Year of Change – and whilst we may not be able to predict all that will happen we know that it is now just over 80 days until the 6 th of May which is considered by most to be the likely date of the General Election. People may have travelled around the world in eighty days but the challenges of organising an Election Campaign in North Devon needs just as much careful planning in order to ensure that we meet with as many of you as possible over the next few months. Whilst modern forms of communication are a wonderful way of keeping in contact and I am always pleased to hear from people by email, telephone or even by good old fashioned letters, it is also good to meet folk face to face and hear what their concerns are.
Obviously I hope to get out and about as much as I can but I shall also have to rely on my team of helpers to bring back some of your concerns to me. I would also be delighted to hear from anyone who would be able to help in this regard and join my canvassing team. Whether you prefer talking to people, recording information or just putting leaflets through doors, your support will be really appreciated, however much or little you are able to do.
In addition we shall require financial support and if you are able to assist either by helping with fund raising or by making a contribution to the fighting fund , it will be put to good use in seeking to follow on from our success in the last year ' s Council Elections and improving on the good work that they have started. With the Conservative Party needing an additional 117 seats in order to gain a majority of even one it is vital that we play our part by electing a Conservative Member of Parliament for North Devon and bringing David Cameron's chance to form a new Conservative Government one step closer.
“Conservative Future” for North Devon
Conservative Future is the largest youth political organisation in the UK. It is the movement for under 30s that is all about involving young people in politics and addressing the issues that matter to them.
“Rarely has the Country needed change as badly as it does now. Given the scale of the challenge we face, we need every hand to the pump. That means everyone who shares the views of the modern Conservative Party should be getting involved. There's a vital role to play for everyone.” (David Cameron)
With this in mind we are holding a launch party for a new North Devon Branch of Conservative Future at Trimstone Manor Country House Hotel on Tuesday 23 February from 7pm. So if you, or someone you know, is under thirty, votes here in North Devon and would like to get involved , we would be delighted to hear from them. Please note that whilst there is no charge for the event , entry is by ticket only. To request tickets please telephone 01271 343101 or email mailto:philipmilton@philipmilton.co.uk .
And finally an advert – but for a very good cause
It is with tremendous pleasure that we announce that Tyme Restaurant at Trimstone is once again taking part in the fabulous North Devon Hospice ‘Big Breakfast' event. We invite you to join us for FREE breakfast on Saturday 27 March between 8.00am and noon. It is hoped that ‘happy eaters' will then give generously in lieu of a charge for their breakfast thus raising much needed funds to ensure that the Hospice can continue to provide specialist care for the next 25 years and beyond. For further information and to reserve your places, please contact us on 01271 868050. I don't mind if we fill the seats with Conservatives but promise all parties will be welcome so do tell your friends!
My very best wishes
