Future

Introduction

Conservative Future (CF) includes all members of the party under the age of thirty. CF has over 15 000 members nationally and Wellingborough’s CF is a strong part of the national structure. Our CF members are active both nationally and locally. Peter Bone MP for Wellingborough maintains that he would not have won his seat without the support of CF members.

In addition to helping with fundraising and electioneering, CF hold their own events, both nationally and locally, these vary from social events to national seminars. These events give our members a great stepping stone into politics, allowing them to get an excellent insight into real politics and to meet people who will help them with their aspirations. If you want to help your local community, take your political interest further or even become a future Prime Minister, CF is an excellent organisation to be part of. If you are interested in becoming involved or have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact us.

About Thomas Pursglove

Councillor Thomas Pursglove

Thomas was born in Kettering in November 1988 and has lived in Wellingborough all of his life. Having left Sir Christopher Hatton School in the summer of 2007, he is currently studying for a degree in politics at Queen Mary College, The University of London. He has been involved in local politics since 2006 and was a member of the successful Campaign team during the 2007 local elections.

Recently Thomas has become the Chairman of Wellingborough Conservative Future and has high hopes for its development. In May 2007 he became the youngest Borough Councillor in the history of Wellingborough, and one of the youngest in the country when he was elected to represent Croyland ward at 18 years of age. He is a strong supporter of David Cameron and believes that his agenda offers “the change that Britain needs”.

Outside of politics Thomas swam for Wellingborough Swimming Club for ten years, plays cricket for the Old Grammarians and is also Chairman of the Wellingborough Old Grammarians Indoor Cricket Centre. “I hope that my Chairmanship will see Wellingborough’s CF go from strength to strength as a political organisation, where young people can make a real difference and be listened to. I hope to organise a number of social events that will hopefully appeal to all, whilst affording the opportunity for young people to become politically active and get hands on experience of political campaigning.”
