The Lib Dem Group on Shropshire Councill have elected Councillors Roger Evans and Heather Kidd as joint group leaders for the year leading up to Shropshire Council elections in May 2025.
Roger said: “Our joint ticket brings together a wealth of skills and experience which complement themselves extremely well. As well as being an experienced Councillor, Heather has worked for many years for the Local Government Association as a mentor for Councils across England. Meanwhile, I’ve served on Shropshire County Council, Shrewsbury District Council and Shropshire Council for a total of 29 years in various roles. During this time I have met many organisations and residents from the wide area this council covers. To me, the community have and always will come first.
Heather added: “Shropshire Council is in a dire situation. It is in a dire financial situation and the current Conservative administration still insists on spending money on vanity projects such as the North West Relief Road and Shrewsbury Shopping Centres.“This County needs an administration that focuses on giving high-quality services to residents in ALL parts of the County, which listens to residents’ views and works closely with community groups and parish councils for the good of everyone”
