Join us at The Little Theatre in Chesham for an informal fireside chat and Q&A with Baroness Claire Tyler of Enfield, covering adult social care reform, mental health, national security, and key parliamentary business.
Full Event Description:
We are delighted to host Baroness Claire Tyler of Enfield for a special evening in Chesham on Thursday, 29th October 2026.
Rather than a formal lecture, the event will feature an interactive fireside chat touching on adult social care—a subject currently at the top of the national political agenda—alongside key insights into support for unpaid carers, workforce challenges, and healthcare reform.
Baroness Tyler will also speak briefly on her work across mental health, the Health Bill, financial inclusion, and international affairs (including relations with Russia, China, and the USA), before opening the floor to questions from attendees.
Schedule:
Young Liberals in Harrogate & Knaresborough are joining University of York Lib Dems for an afternoon of bowling (free), followed by food at Nando's (pay for your own food).
You are warmly invited to be part of our fizzing Grand Champions Gala Dinner in Epsom's iconic Queen's Stand overlooking the famous Derby course. Much more than a dinner, this will be an unforgettable celebration of OUR MULTIPLE ELECTION WINNERS. Starter's orders at 7.00pm for the 'off' at 7.30pm.
Guests will be greeted with a welcome drink (fizz or juice), to be followed by a choice of dishes through three mouth-watering courses (click ticket button for details), red and white wine and water on the table, coffee, tea and mints to conclude.
Sure there'll be great food and drink, but also much more: a live and online silent auction for some great lots; horsey-themed fun and games; engaging and entertaining speeches; and to finish, live music for relaxed listening and dancing. Or linger at your table in a quiet part of the Jockey Room for a drink and chat with Helen Maguire MP and our other local, electoral Champions.
Our GUEST SPEAKER will be Layla Moran, Lib Dem MP for Oxford West and Abingdon, and currently chair of the cross-party House of Commons Health and Social Care Committee.
A physics teacher by profession, Layla has an international background; her mother is a Christian Arab from Jerusalem, and her father a British EU Ambassador. She has lived in many countries including Belgium, Greece, Ethiopia, Jamaica and Jordan and speaks French fluently along with some Spanish, Arabic and Greek.
At home, she is a proud community activist campaigning to save local businesses, for better schools provision and fairer taxation.
Known for expressing forthright views with vim, vigour and humour, we much look forward to her lively company.
VERY IMPORTANT: Book as many tickets as you like, but ONLY ONE AT A TIME! Therefore, if you'd like two tickets, please go through the booking process twice. I know it's a pain, but it's the only way we can automatically capture guests' SEPARATE menu CHOICES.
