Thank you to everyone who supported the Lib Dem Focus Team candidates in the local elections.
John O'Neill, Pat and Dave Hockey and Claire Young were all re-elected to South Gloucestershire Council but sadly Duncan Goodland missed out on holding the Ladden Brook seat that was previously held by Howard Gawler.
The local results in full:
Charfield
Frampton Cotterell
Ladden Brook
Westerleigh
In South Gloucestershire as a whole, the Conservatives now have a majority with 40 out of the 70 seats. The Lib Dems have 16 and Labour 14.

Don't lose your vote!
South Glos Council is writing to all households to clarify who is registered to vote. You should receive a letter in early February which will clarify if the electoral register information for your property is correct and if you need to take action to join the register.
To vote in the elections on 7 May 2015 you must be registered by Monday 20 April. If you’re not on the register, you won’t have a say in who represents you.
It is also necessary to register to vote if you wish to apply for credit. This is because credit reference agencies use the register to check where someone lives when they apply for credit in order to prevent fraud.
If you are a South Gloucestershire resident and your household hasn’t received a household information letter by the end of February then please contact the electoral services team by calling 01454 863030 or by emailing electoral.services@southglos.gov.uk
