North Jesmond By Election - Thursday 12 September
Can you help the campaign?
Peter Allen has been chosen as the Lib Dem candidate for the North Jesmond by election, following the resignation of long serving Councillor Gerry Keating, due to illness.
Peter Allen (pictured centre) has been working with the North Jesmond Focus Team for the last two years, helping to mastermind Gerry's re-election in 2023 when he was joined by Philip Browne (right), followed by James Cole's (left) election in May 2024. Peter was councillor for Walkergate between 2003 and 2012, and was parliamentary candidate for Newcastle North back in 1997.
We are expecting both the Labour Party and the Greens to target what was a very marginal seat until 2023 & 2024 - so we need as much help as possible. There are many ways in which you can help:
- Delivering leaflets and letters to electors
- Knocking on doors to speak to voters
- Folding letters and stuffing envelopes
- Sitting at a polling station on election day to collect polling numbers from voters
- Helping to remind electors to vote on polling day
Don't worry if you have not done any of these things before - there will be others who will be more than willing to show you what to do.
We will be canvassing most days, with deliveries across most weekends.
You can use the form below to tell us how you can help and we will be in touch to sort out the details.
