Welcome to Sarah Carr's website
Dear friend, Thank you for taking the time to visit my website. I am the Liberal Democrat Parliamentary Candidate for Hereford and South Herefordshire. Like Paul Keetch, I live with my family in Hereford. As a result I also understand and share many of the concerns of local people. I love our county. I am currently actively campaigning on a range of issues including keeping health services local, pushing for affordable homes for local people and fighting against Post Office Closures. I am passionately committed to retaining Hereford and South Herefordshire as a Liberal Democrat held constituency at the next General Election. Please have a look around my site and do send me an email or telephone if you have any questions or if you would like to get more involved with the Liberal Democrats in Herefordshire. Thanks again for visiting. I hope to see you soon.
