Liz Jarvis

Liz Jarvis is the Liberal Democrat MP for Eastleigh. Liz is a strong, local champion who has the experience to deliver the change we need.

Her first-hand experience of raising a family on her own means she fully understands the challenges facing many households across Eastleigh today. For the past three years she has been working alongside local councillors to support residents across Eastleigh with a wide range of issues and fighting for the local community.

She persuaded the Council to declare a Cost of Living Emergency, fought South Western Railway to keep rail ticket offices open in Eastleigh and Chandler’s Ford, has worked with residents on stopping disastrous schemes at the Ageas (Utilita) Bowl in West End and Velmore Farm, and has been leading the fight to save Winchester A&E. She has called on the Government to urgently fix the local NHS dentist crisis and ban disposable vapes to protect young people and local rivers including the River Itchen, campaigned for Ofwat to be abolished and tighter regulation of Southern Water, and has championed the cause of the 6,310 WASPI women in Eastleigh.

A successful journalist, she has also volunteered as a trustee for a charity supporting families and as a local school governor.

Liz says: “I’m proud of Eastleigh, our people and our communities. As the MP for Eastleigh I will be a strong voice for residents in Parliament and fight for a better future for everyone in Eastleigh every day.”
