Local Parties and BranchesWeb Directory

Liberal Democrat Local Party organisations each cover one or more Westminster constituencies. They may include Local Branches, which typically cover one or more wards within the Local Party area. Every Party Member is automatically made a member of a Local Party, normally the one where they live. Local Parties are an important element in the structure of the Party. They elect delegates to Regional Conferences (or State Conferences in Scotland and Wales), and to the Federal Conference, which develop the Party's policy and its Constitution. Most members feel loyalty to Local Party first and the Federal Party second, which is how it should be in a party which believes in devolving power to the lowest level practical, rather than in centralising it.
