The Conservative message was taken to Edge Hill University at the Ormskirk institution's Freshers' Fair held on 24th September.
Edward McCarthy, Co-ordinator of West Lancs Conservative Future and West Lancs Conservatives Deputy Chairman for Membership and Fundraising was joined by fellow activists at the event held on campus.
Edward said: "We had a really positive response from the students at Edge Hill University. As a party, we try to get as many young people as possible involved and the feedback we received was really good. We spoke to a number of students who want to help us win elections locally and ensure that Labour do not do to West Lancashire what they did to the country. We also spoke to some students who have been here for some time and they were impressed at how active Conservatives are locally. Many commented that they don't hear from Labour except for at election times, whereas Conservatives work hard all year round. With the General Election fast approaching it was encouraging to hear students becoming interested in politics, the Fresher's Fair was very busy and showcased many local businesses and organisations."
West Lancs Conservative Future are very active in West Lancashire, they have previously organised social action / community projects as well as debate nights and social events.
