Conservative Future

From Free net encyclopedia

Conservative Future is the youth movement of the British Conservative Party.

Conservative Future is claimed to be the largest youth wing of any British political party. As well as having branches at most British universities, Conservative Future also has a number of branches affiliated with city associations. The city branches aim to attract members from the non-student population. Members of city branches often go on to contest local and national elections. City associations are having to increasingly turn to the internet to attract new active members.

CF is run by a National Team, elected annually, to represent the membership and to implement its aims and objectives. The chairman is supported by seven other members of the National Management Executive. The team consists of - Nick Vaughan (National Chairman), Jonathan Ash-Edwards, Sam Beaver, Caroline Hunt, Dan Large, Claire Palmer and Andrew Young. In addition, there is a full-time member of staff at Conservative Campaign Headquarters (formerly Conservative Central Office) known as the National Organiser.
