Barnsley and Penistone Liberal Democrats


Building a Better Barnsley

Barnsley Lib Dem councillors and campaigners are active in their communities and work hard to get things done. Our councillors listen to residents, stay in touch through regular newsletters and email updates, and work all year round on local issues.
Barnsley Liberal Democrats currently have eight councillors serving in Barnsley Town Hall, representing communities in Kingstone, Town End, Penistone, Darton, Pogmoor, Mapplewell and Staincross.
With years of experience holding Labour to account, we will continue to challenge those in power with the same energy and determination under the new Reform UK administration.

A digital world fit for the next generation

For too long, tech giants have treated children as data to be mined, using addictive algorithms and harmful content to keep them scrolling. While some are calling for blanket bans, we know these are impractical and risk isolating vulnerable groups.
