The South West Hertfordshire Conservative Association runs the campaigning, organising and fund-raising functions of the South West Herts Parliamentary Constituency. We raise money to select, promote and campaign for candidates in our County, District/Borough, Parish & Town Council elections and the Parliamentary election.  We do this independently on behalf of the Conservative Party and are not funded by Parliamentary expenses. An Executive Council of the members runs the Association, and the day-to-day administration is carried out by The Chairman, two Deputies and the Treasurer.

As a member of the Association, you can seek nomination to stand as a Conservative candidate, help select our Parliamentary, County, District, Parish and Town Council candidates, vote in Party Leadership elections and become involved in fundraising and campaigning. You could participate in events ranging from virtual 'audiences' with leading politicians to Black-tie Galas and Barn Dances, join our Political Debating Forums, and become active in Local and Parliamentary politics. We are volunteers seeking to advance the aims and policies of the Conservative Party.

Officers of the Association are elected each year at the Annual General Meeting and our 2023-2024 management team is as follows;  Chair: Mike Sims, 
Deputy Chair Political: Philip Hearn , Treasurer: Michael Bruce , Deputy Chair Membership and Fundraising: Vacant.
