Volunteers from Bedford Borough Liberal Democrats are delivering a special FOCUS leaflet giving contact details and useful websites for those that need further information and/or advice regarding the Coronavirus.
Bedford Borough residents with long term health conditions could receive free support to help keep their households warm this winter.
Last night, Bedford Borough Council's Climate Change Committee praised the Mayor's Climate Change Fund for providing almost £400,000 in funding for community buildings and vulnerable residents. This has amounted in almost 60 tonnes of CO2 saved per year from this fund alone. This forms part of Mayor Dave Hodgson's commitment to achieving a net zero carbon council by 2030.
Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg has sent a message of congratulations to the new Mayor of Bedford Dave Hodgson. Commenting on the victory of Liberal Democrat Dave Hodgson in the Bedford Mayoral election, Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg said:
Happy New Year!
The Village Tour 2012, or '60 in 30,' is now over, and I want to thank everyone who came out to speak to me at the 60 mobile surgeries across 60 villages in September's 30 days. The fact that so many residents talked to me to share their views on the important matters for our communities was very much appreciated, as was the welcome I received. A variety of weather conditions were experienced, and I am particularly grateful to those who braved wet and windy evenings or sweltering afternoons (we had both of these extremes, and plenty in between!) in the cause of taking the opportunity to talk to me directly while I was in the neighbourhood.
