Bill Etheridge said: "It was great to show Sir Phillip and Esther around Sedgley and meet some potential voters - feedback was very positive and we are confident of a good result in May.

"She also met some of the local businesses such as Lime Restaurant who not only serve award winning food but are active contributors to charity and good causes in the area.

"They then met supporters and candidates for the May election and the question and answer session was lively and varied, it was a great day and a boost if we needed it for all of us for the event ahead."
