South Lakes Labour is the Labour Party in the Westmorland and Lonsdale parliamentary constituency. Many of our members live and/or work in Kendal and its environs. We welcome the initiative taken to set up the Climate Change Kendal Citizens’ Jury and commit to:

• Share news about the formation, process and progress of the Citizens’ Jury with our members, supporters and affiliated unions
• Fully discuss and debate the Jury’s recommendations within the local Party, with the aim of agreeing supportive actions that South Lakes Labour can undertake within the next year; and
• Continue the conversation on responding to the climate change emergency in developing Labour policies locally, and more widely, in contributing to policy debates within the Labour Party.
