Welcome to Sam's website

I was elected as the County Councillor for the Electoral Division of Lancaster East in June 2009. My division includes the Lancaster City Council wards of Bulk and Dukes, along with about half of the John o'Gaunt Ward - including Primrose, Moorlands and Standen Park. I seek to serve the interests of all residents of the division, regardless of their political views. 

I am a member of the Green Party of England and Wales. You can find a link to the national party website on the 'My Politics' page, which also has links to the websites of the North Lancashire Green Party and the Regional Green Party for North-West England. The North Lancashire website includes information about the local party as well as contact details for the twelve Green Party councillors who sit on Lancaster City Council. You can also find contact details for Councillor Chris Coates, who represents the electoral division of Lancaster Central on Lancashire County Council. 

I hope that you will find my website interesting: thank you for visiting.
