DATE CHANGED to: Monday 17th April 2023

Widcombe Baptist Church, Pultney Road, Widcombe Bath

Starting at 19:00pm (finishing at 21:00).

We have changed the date to the 17th April as a number of the candidates were away over Easter. By moving from the 12th to the 17th April we will have 6-7 candidates rather than 3-4. We have invited all the nominated candidates to attend the hustings. The nominations have now been published and the declared candidates are listed below.

The hustings will be chaired by Jeremy Boss of the Widcombe Association. Each candidate will be invited to make a short statement at the start which will be followed by questions raised to each of the candidates in turn. Questions can be received in advance or from the floor as time allows. If you would like to raise a question to the candidates please send it to [email protected] by 16th April.  

Anyone is welcome to attend and you are invited to register at the bookings link below.  We do ask for email but only so we can advise you of any changes to the event. If you have a blue badge or accessibility needs then please book a car parking space below and we will try to reserve one for you.  Car parking spaces are limited.  There are no fees for this event.

If you are unable to attend on the 17th April, we understand that the Bear Flat Association is holding a hustings event on the 13 April at Methodist church hall, Bruton Ave at 7.00 pm where they have invited candidates for both Oldfield and Widcombe & Lyncombe wards.
