Rose Carnival – Marlow Bottom
Written by morty on June 26, 2010 – 8:26 pm -Kavita Mohan took a break from door knocking today to attend the Rose Carnival in Marlow Bottom. The weather was fantastic and there was a real sense of the community coming together. The organisers can rightly feel proud of staging such a successful event.
What a shame then if this is the last ever Rose Carnival. The organisers need more volunteers who can give just a small amount of time to help plan and stage this event. If you can help then let Kavita know and she will forward your details to the organisers.

Thank you to the organisers and everyone who supported this community event.

Greater Marlow By-Election
Written by morty on June 20, 2010 – 4:06 pm -Kavita Mohan has been selected as the new Liberal Democrat candidate for this election. If you can help then please contact the campaign team via ian.morton@wycombelibdems.org.uk
Kavita Mohan says “I am delighted to have been selected as a candidate in this election and I am looking forward to meeting as many of you as possible over the next few weeks.
I feel in light of a new era of politics I can offer a different candidate, one who is hard working and determined to serve their local community and fight for the causes that are important to the residents’.
Being a litigation caseworker by profession means that I am keen to get involved with local casework for any disputes and issues local residents may have.
I have been living in the district for 4 years having been in London previously, one aspect that stands out about Buckinghamshire is the sense of community spirit. So I was disappointed to hear that Marlow Bottom’s Rose Carnival could end after this year due to a lack of volunteers. This can not be allowed to happen, your Councillors should be championing community events like this and using their contacts within the community to ensure it’s survival. If you can help with this event then let me know and I will pass your details onto the organisers. The carnival raises funds for the maintenance of the playing fields as well as the local school and is therefore deserving of all our support. The carnival takes place on 26th June on the playing field at the top of Burford Close.”

Thank You!
Written by Steve Guy on May 8, 2010 – 3:36 pm -The votes have been counted, and we have increased our vote to 13,863. This represents a swing from Tory to LibDem of 4.8%, an outstanding result which clearly establishes us as the main challengers in Wycombe. So my thanks are due to every one of the 13,863 Wycombe people who put their faith in us in 2010.
I must also record here my thanks to a number of others too. I have the great fortune of being part of a fantastic team of people. So many volunteers delivered leaflets, canvassed or donated money. We couldn’t have done it without any of you. My agent worked tirelessly for many weeks on the campaign, and he like everyone is a volunteer and gave his time for nothing. Finally, my wife has been a tower of strength. It is easy to forget the strain of being the spouse of being a candidate. I am so grateful for her support.
I offer my congratulations to Steven Baker, who has become MP for a great place. He is truly fortunate. I also give Steven notice that I won’t be going away. I remain committed to Wycombe and will be scrutinising his performance as your MP.
We also had some fantastic news from Totteridge, where Lib Dem Jen Joseph secured the seat vacated by the resignation of Joel Foley on Wycombe District Council. I am looking forward to working with her, and I thank the people of Totteridge for electing her. I know she will be a great asset.

Don’t let anyone tell you it can’t be different

As the campaign moves into it’s final days I have been overwhelmed by the level of support you have shown me. If you still haven’t made up you mind, please visit my campaign site at http://www.steveguy.org.uk. This time it can be different – but it’s up to you. Every vote is going to count in the most important election for 65 years. Together we can change the face of British politics forever.
