Elaine Bagshaw joins Lib Dem Expand as Honorary President

Liberal Democrat Expand are excited to announce Elaine Bagshaw’s appointment as Honorary President.

Elaine Bagshaw has extensive experience making change in the party – as a former chair of Young Liberals, as a Parliamentary and Mayoral Candidate, and as a member of the party’s Federal Executive.

Commenting on her appointment, Elaine said: “I’m delighted to be joining the Lib Dem Expand team and taking on an exciting role. I’m looking forward to bringing together people and groups that want to make it easier for members to get involved and give them a great experience when they do.”

We’re looking forward to working with Elaine to help bring together different voices from across the party, help spread best practice, and dispel the idea of ‘no go areas’ for our party.

Elaine has previously written for Liberal Democrat Expand. In July 2016 Elaine wrote about her work to ‘turn things around in Tower Hamlets’; and in October 2017 wrote about a ‘start up model for the Liberal Democrats‘ and what that might constitute.
