THE CONSERVATIVE POLICY FORUM (Cpf)
Most voters have some interest in Conservative policies and many can be supportive and/or critical. The idea of Cpf is to gather together all strands of opinion from the Association and put them into a form that represents our view in total. The free flow of ideas and opinions is stimulating.
The system is simple! New policy briefs are developed by the Party Research Dept. under Rt. Hon. Oliver Letwin MP. These are sent to all Constituency Cpf Chairmen who then pass them on to those who have asked to receive them. A meeting is arranged and a report of our discussions is sent to CPHQ where our input is disseminated with that of all other associations so that Shadow Cabinet spokespersons can be briefed as to what grass roots opinion is. A summary report is sent back.
IT WORKS.We have most recently discussed all the usual headline issues health, education, immigration, pensions, Europe etc
Our numbers are increasing but more are always welcome. Friends may come if they are accompanied and vouched for by fully accredited members. For further details of Cpf contact Norman Pratt

The Association's Office
Angela Finch is the office administrator. She says:
The office is situated on the first floor of the Thurmaston Conservative Club overlooking the Melton Road along which the Roman centurions once tramped. Thurmaston is a lively, friendly place and a good centre in which to work.
Visitors are very welcome and will find a library of useful resource material relating to all aspects of the Conservative Party.
I look after the administration of the Association. This includes carrying out work for the officers, the Executive Council, promoting the branch committees’ fund-raising activities, the Association fund-raising events, the Association membership, all book-keeping relating to these activities and last but certainly not least, organising our MP’s fortnightly surgery.
Angela’s office hours are: 9.30 am to 5.30 pm Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Messages can be left on the answer phone out of office hours.
