Poole Conservatives
We in the Poole Conservative Association aim to involve people of all ages and from all walks of life.
Here are some of the activities and opportunities we offer:
- Business Groups
- Political Discussion
- Social Clubs
- Standing For Office
- Campaigning Activities
Conservatives are the most open and democratic political party in Britain. After the first three months of your PCA membership, you will be entitled to a vote in Party ballots. You will also have a chance to influence Party policy by letting us know your views.
Anyone living in the UK can join the Conservative Party. You don't have to be a registered voter or a UK national. There is no age limit on membership, although children under the age of 15 cannot be enrolled as full voting members.
As well as providing a great platform to discuss politics, Poole Conservatives have a strong social calendar of enjoyable activities offering opportunities to meet new friends and greet old ones.
We have a broad membership from all walks of life who meet regularly in our clubs. We run four streetside clubs where you can drop in for a drink and a chat, or stay for a meal and a social event such as a quiz night, in:
Many Poole wards have committees that organise additional events. We regularly hold open social receptions to "meet and greet" newcomers over a free glass of wine/alternative beverage and a buffet.
