Janice Middleton

Statement to voters

I have stood as the Liberal Democrats candidate in 5 Local Council Elections and as the prospective parliamentary candidate for Rotherham in 2015. I have again been selected to stand in the General Election for the Wentworth and Dearne constituency on 8th June 2017. I am the Chair of the Rotherham and Barnsley Liberal Democrats and their representative on the Yorkshire and Humberside Liberal Democrats Executive Committee. Having lived in the Rotherham area for most of my life and in the Wentworth and Dearne area for over 40 years I have a clear understanding of the needs of the community and the positive aspects which can be built on. I worked in education for 35 years, often working with a wide range of professionals on Child Safeguarding issues. After retiring 3 years ago I became involved in local community groups to improve provision of social activities and dealing with environmental issues. My commitment, enthusiasm, knowledge and experience will enable me to make a difference by supporting the needs of communities in the Wentworth and Dearne constituency. As a Liberal Democrat I will :- fight to bring manufacturing and jobs to our region. address inequality of opportunities for quality training for students leaving school/college fight to end Zero Hours Contracts. fight for the National Health Service and Social Care to be organised to work together allowing medical and mental health, nursing and general care to take place in an appropriate setting at the right time. fight to keep the training of nurses free, this will increase the number of local nurses in the NHS. fight for more council houses to be built and review rents charged by private landlords. fight against spoiling our environment, through fracking. Vote for me, Janice Middleton, someone who will fight for a fair, caring society for everyone.
