Conservative Future (CF) includes all members of the party under
the age of thirty. CF has over 15 000 members nationally and Wellingborough's
CF is a strong part of the national structure. Our CF members
make a difference both nationally and locally. Peter Bone, the
now MP for Wellingborough, maintains that he would not have won
his seat without the support of CF members.
In addition to helping with fundraising and electioneering, CF
hold their own events, both nationally and locally, these vary
from social events to national seminars. These events give our
members a great stepping stone into politics, allowing them to
get an excellent insight into real politics and to meet people
that will help them with their aspirations. If you want to make
a difference in your local community, take your political interest
further or even become a future Prime Minister, CF is an excellent
organisation to be part of. If you are interested in becoming
involved or have any further questions please do not hesitate
to contact us.
Thomas was born in Kettering in November 1988 and has resided in
Wellingborough all of his life. Having left Sir Christopher Hatton
School in the summer of 2007, he is currently studying for a degree
in politics at Queen Mary College, The University of London. He
has been involved in local politics since 2006 and was a member
of the successful Campaign team during the 2007 local elections.
Since then Thomas has become the Chairman of Wellingborough Conservative
Future and has high hopes for its development. In May 2007 he became
the youngest Borough Councillor in the history of Wellingborough,
and one of the youngest in the country when he was elected to represent
Croyland ward at 18 years of age. He is a strong supporter of David
Cameron and believes that his agenda offers “the change that
Britain needs.”
Outside of politics Thomas swam for Wellingborough Swimming Club
for ten years, plays cricket for the Old Grammarians and is also
Chairman of the Wellingborough Old Grammarians Indoor Cricket Centre.
"I hope that my Chairmanship will see Wellingborough's CF go
from strength to strength as a political organisation, where young
people can make a real difference and be listened to. I hope to
organise a number of social events that will hopefully appeal to
all, whilst affording the opportunity for young people to become
politically active and get hands on experience of political campaigning.”
