Help Direct - Safe Trader Scheme in partnership with Lancashire County Council Trading Standards
Help Direct's Safe Trader Scheme is funded by Lancashire County Council and managed by Lancashire Trading Standards Service. The service aims to help citizens of Lancashire find a reliable trader, as well as supporting local businesses.
All members of the Safe Trader Scheme have met minimum requirements, set out by the Trading Standards Service and have all committed to adhere to a Code of Practice. Not only does this give you added peace of mind when choosing a trader, but the support of Lancashire Trading Standards Service also means that there's someone to help if things don't go to plan!

I have been elected as a County Councillor for the Electoral Division of Morecambe North, covering Bolton-le-Sands (part) Slyne with Hest, Bare and Poulton (Morecambe) to serve the interests of all residents, regardless of political persuasion.
I am, however, a member of the Conservative Party and I work with members of my own party and indeed other parties in local organisations such as the Poulton Neighbourhood Management Board. I have always had close contacts with my Lancaster City Council colleagues and indeed served on the City Council before I became a County Councillor.
These are the committees and sub committees I sit on at County Hall:
- Regulatory (Chair)
- County Council
- Education Scrutiny Committee
- Joint Committee of the Relevant Councils
- Commons and Town Greens Sub-Committee
