An invitation to new members of the Liberal Democrats from ALDC #libdemfightback

By ALDC | Fri 15th May 2015 - 10:55 am

Firstly, welcome to the Liberal Democrats! We’re really pleased you’ve taken the first step and joined the party fighting for a fairer, open and more liberal society.

Many people when they take their first steps in politics, give some thought as to how they would like to be more actively involved. Joining ALDC is a great way to get started in your local area, and also to begin to make connections with other members in different parts of the country.

For every new member serious about getting active in their local area, campaigning in their community and going on to winning local elections, ALDC membership is a must.

Who we are

ALDC was originally founded, as the Association of Liberal Councillors, in the late 1960s. Our goal, then and now, is to give local Liberal Democrat members the tools and support they need to reach out and campaign effectively within their communities.
