Don Foster, Liberal Democrat MP for Bath, will join his colleagues Bathwick councillors Armand Edwards and Nicholas Coombes for a public surgery in the ward.

Bathwick St Mary’s Church are again kindly providing their church hall for 10am – 12noon on Saturady 29th March. Bathwick residents are welcome to dicuss issues with either or all politicians without an appointment.

Nicholas and Armand have been holding bi-monthly public surgeries in Bathwick since their election last year, usually on the first Saturday of the month. However, this one has been moved forward by one week to accomodate Don Foster’s busy parliamentary schedule. In February they held a similar joint surgery on the university campus aimed at students and staff of the institution.

Liberal Democrat politicians commonly hold surgeries to make themselves better available to the public and closer to their communities. Says Cllr Coombes: “I’m glad to welcome Don Foster back to Bathwick. Our surgeries are generally popular but we’ve never yet turned someone away.”
