Wallasey Ward

Conservative Councillors don't just turn up at election time, expecting your vote. We know we have to earn it. And, unlike the other parties, we keep in touch all year round and we work hard on local issues in our community.

Since the last council elections in May 2023, Councillors Ian Lewis and Lesley Rennie have reported 1,073 issues for action to the Town Hall.

Since being elected in 2023, we have:

  • Worked to re-open Wallasey Village Library
  • Had more of our green spaces given protection than anywhere else in Wirral
  • Fought Labour's plans for cycle lanes across our community

We are now working to:

  • Secure improvements to Grove Road Station
  • Update the children's play areas at Wallacre and Harrison Park
  • Persuade the Council to install a safer crossing on Bayswater Road 

But they can’t do it alone. Your views can help to make a difference to the community.
