Introducing Chelsea Chadwick

Chelsea Chadwick

On May 4th the people of Eastover will be voting for a Town, District and a County Councillor. Labour’s candidate for Sedgemoor District Council is CHELSEA CHADWICK.

Chelsea Chadwick is a young Bridgwater mother who lives locally with her husband and their two children. Recently elected as Women’s Officer for the Bridgwater Branch Labour Party she has been instrumental in setting up the rapidly increasing Labour youth group, and feels that by offering to share her energy and enthusiasm she can really make a difference as a councillor in the Bridgwater Eastover Ward.

I have been a Labour supporter for as long as I can remember – having grown up in an ex-mining village and I know the full extent of how Tory neglect can ruin the livelihoods of thousands of hard working people. Since I was of voting age, I have used my vote for good and to help those around me. I am putting myself forward as a candidate as I cannot sit back and allow the devastating cuts of the Tories.  As a young working mother, I know firsthand of the struggles people are experiencing – extortionate childcare costs, relentless transport issues and being economically and socially deprived of real opportunities by a Tory government. To not even provide a speed limit close to our local schools is another example of Tory failure.
