NOT sure which way you're voting in the Derby City Council elections on Thursday, May 22?
Here are all the candidate details by ward.
They were all asked whether they support the Derby Telegraph's Anything to Declare campaign.
This was launched in 2006 when we called for a change in the law forcing all election candidates to declare any previous convictions, so the public knew all facts before deciding who to elect.
The candidates were also asked to give a description of their policies and ideas which appear under subject heading 'Main Issues'.SELECT YOUR WARD:Abbey / Allestree / Alvaston / Arboretum / Blagreaves / Boulton / Chaddesden / Chellaston / Darley / Derwent / Littleover / Mackworth / Mickleover / Normanton / Oakwood / Sinfin / SpondonABBEYAjit Atwal

Anything to declare? NoPaul Hezelgrave
Party: Labour
Age: 60
Occupation: Retired Teacher
Address: Church Street, Derby
Main issues: I worked as a languages teacher in a large Secondary school in the city, having been a head of year and retiring as head of department. I am experienced in listening to people and helping them sort out their problems.
I am keen to join the very effective team of two existing Labour councillors in order to further the work already done in transforming Abbey Ward for the better. If elected, I would be a very vocal advocate of Abbey residents on the city council.

Do you have anything to declare? NoEdward Packham
Party: Conservative
Age: 23
Occupation: Community volunteer/ seeking employment
Address: Rowan Park Close
Main Issues: I have lived in Derby all my life and have recently completed a history degree. My main issues in this election are centred on local concerns, tackling parking issues and the brown bin charge. I am committed to improving the facilities of Abbey Ward residents and tackling anti-social behaviour. As a young person I am passionate about improving Education for young people.

Do you have anything to declare? NoALLESTREEDiane Froggatt
Party: Labour
Age: 53
Occupation: Housewife
Address: St Brides Walk, Derby
Main issues: I believe in working together as a community, to help residents of Allestree wherever possible. Working closely with the local police to ensure we keep crime and anti-social behaviour to a minimum. To improve on the care for the elderly and disabled in the community. To support local schools and nurseries and ensure our children have the best possible start in life. By listening to the concerns of Allestree residents I will explore all avenues until an acceptable solution to both parties can be reached.

Do you have anything to declare? NoFrank Leeming
Party: UKIP
Age: Not provided
Occupation: Not provided
Address: Field Crescent, Alvaston
Main issues: I have eight years experience as a councillor. We at UKIP do not have to work under the control of a party Whip which means we are free to serve the community in the wards of which we are elected, not tow the party line which all the other parties do. Smear campaigns are well under way by the other parties. They are frightened that you might upset the resident political class who are more interested in self interest than in serving you the general public. That is why we believe there should be a reduction in the number of councillors by a third saving £250.000 per year. Provide the first half hour of parking in the city centre for free to try to encourage people back into the city. Save Council care homes and day centres, be truthful to the electorate at all times.

Party: Conservative
Age: 62
Occupation: Manufacturing Engineer
Address: Calder Close, Allestree
Main issues: Having represented Allestree for the past 29 years there are a number of issues that are constantly under discussion by local residents. These include inappropriate housing development,road safety – particularly at schools – and facilities for both younger and older people. There continue to be problems with inconsiderate parking, particularly on pavements and grass verges, causing unnecessary and unsightly deterioration and damage. Also, as gardening activity increases in the area, the "Brown Bin Tax" has become a serious issue for those who have recycled for years and I want to scrap it. I will be opposing plans for 400 houses on the Kedleston Road Estate.

Anything to declare? NoALVASTONPeter Berry
Party: Conservative
Age: 67
Occupation: Retired soldier/postman/councillor
Address: Gilbert Close, Spondon
Main Issues: As a former Mayor of Derby, I spent a lot of time meeting residents from all walks of life. The majority of people I speak to want to live in a safe, clean and vibrant community. I would use my skills in licencing to ensure that a stop is put to the proliferation of betting shops and fast food outlets in Alvaston. I believe that we should have stronger enforcement for fly-tippers, graffiti, vandals and dog owners who don't pick up their pets mess. I will help the traders in Alvaston to work with the council to make it the vibrant and bustling centre that it deserves to be.

Anything to declare? NoAlan Graves
Party: UKIP
Age: Not provided
Occupation: Not provided
Address: Twyford Road, Derby
Main issues: It is noticed by many people that work on Alvaston District Centre has occurred during the election period and not last year when there was no election. That said, it is nice to see that the years of campaigning by Alan is finally paying off. Alan is disappointed that the three Labour councillor have decided not to support the application for an Aldi shop on Coleman Street. This would be ideal for local people when the cost of living is so high on the agenda.
Alan is an active member of Alvaston Park Friends. He helps local residents with issues such as the council's attempt to build on a small piece of grass in Elvaston Lane where elderly people are enjoying their last days. UKIP started a petition and that application was halted.
Do you support the Derby Telegraph's Anything to Declare Campaign? Yes
Anything to declare? NoJill Leonard
Party: Liberal Democrats
Age: 62
Occupation: Retired
Address: May Street, Derby
Main issues: Loss of free brown bin collections goes against improving recycling – the brown bin tax should be scrapped. Open spaces are vital for communities and need to be protected. Alvaston has already lost a lot of allotments and these need special protection. Derby needs to continue to support businesses to create new jobs, including apprenticeships to ensure we have skills for the future.
Do you support the Derby Telegraph's Anything to Declare Campaign? No. This should be an individual's own choice.
Do you have anything to declare? Nothing of note. Charles Taylor
Party: Trade Unionists and Socialists Against Cuts
Age: 56
Occupation: Welding inspector
Address: Stadmoor Court, Chellaston
Main Issues: Charlie is a member of the GMB union. He is also a GMB rep at his workplace. He is a member of Derby Socialist Party.
Our councillors if elected will refuse to implement cutbacks to council funding, when faced with government driven cuts and will argue that the council should in the first instance use their reserves and prudential borrowing to mobilise the mass campaign that is necessary to defeat the cuts. The aim is to set a budget that meets the needs of the local community and demands that the government makes up the shortfall.

Main issues: Provide free/reduced car parking charges for local shoppers in local shopping areas which supports local businesses. Encourage shoppers to park in the local car parks rather than congesting the local streets. Campaign to support the last remaining day centre (Moreleston Street) for dementia sufferers and the elderly in Derby from possible closure. Freeze council Tax. Green open spaces should be maintained - using money from developers.
Brown Bin collection should be free, to reduce landfill costs and encourage recycling.

Party: Labour
Age: Not yet provided
Occupation – Sub Postmaster
Address – Cromwell Road, Derby
Main issues: Arboretum has made excellent progress during the last year or so and this is due to the hard work of the neighbourhood, board, manager, officers and members, as well as myself and fellow ward councillors. I, along with my fellow Labour councillors, will continue to work with the residents of Arboretum in order to continue this progress. A few good examples of this hard work are introducing one way streets to ease traffic congestion and compactor days to remove bulky items.

Address: Duffield Road, Derby
Main Issues: Cut red tape and bureaucracy not essential front-line services. Save Council care homes and day centres. Be truthful to the electorate at all times. Provide the first half hour of parking in the city centre for free as local businesses are suffering and we must encourage people to shop in the city centre. And, most important,put the local people, the electorate first!

Anything to declare? NoAamir Shahzad
Party: Conservative
Age: 31
Occupation: Customer Services
Address: Leonard Walk
Main Issues: As a resident of the Arboretum ward I know the issues affecting the residents. Myself and many others have become weary of the same names, the same promises, but no real action. The Arboretum ward is a vibrant place to live but there are some long-term issues that affect residents of this ward which are continually overlooked. The issues of crime, anti-social behaviour, traffic issues, fly tipping, jobless youth and economic deprivation are everyday issues affecting our area. None of the current elected councillors have addressed these issues; none have brought the plight of Arboretum to the forefront despite, recently, the Mayor of Derby being an Arboretum councillor.

Party: Labour
Age: 45
Occupation; CEO of a local charity called Disability Direct
Address: Bowbank Close, Littleover
Main issues: Having worked in the voluntary and social care sector for over 20 years, I would like to help positively influence decisions which affect all residents and business but in particular the vulnerable people in the city. My thoughts for an even better Derby include: Better use of the 'can-do' voluntary sector and creation of social enterprises.
Encouraging employers to take on Apprentices
Pride in our neighbourhoods (e.g. OSCAR)
Better marketing of our city – I'm bored of being Nottingham's poor relation.
I'm a big believer in the use of local people for local services. Who knows how to serve Derby better than the people of Derby?

Anything to declare? NoRuth Skelton
Party: Liberal Democrats
Age: 45
Occupation: Councillor for Blagreaves Ward
Address: Donington Drive, Sunny Hill (in Blagreaves)
Main issues: I'm campaigning to prevent Labour re-allocating our new city park for housing land. Our local roads can't take hundreds more cars. Labour's Brown Bin tax is a disaster, and won't save the Council money. Scrap it. Labour has pushed up the cost of living by increasing Council Tax for the past two years. Liberal Democrats will accept the extra Government cash and freeze the Council Tax. Parking charges in the city centre need reviewing. Current on-street charges in parts of the city centre are hurting businesses. Councillors should pay for meals before meetings.

Address: Chapter Close, Oakwood
Main issues: Abolish Labour's "Brown Bin tax" and restore free brown bin collections, restore fair and equal community funding for Blagreaves and increase it to £50k, support building a new Leisure Pool on the bus station site as I think it disgraceful that Derby residents currently have to travel outside of the city boundary to enjoy modern leisure swimming activities, promote use of the City Centre for Shopping and Leisure via introduction of one free day's parking per month, scrapping parking charges after 6pm in Council-run car parks, and cleaning up the City Centre of chewing gum and control leaflets/flyers.

Party: Labour
Age: 42
Occupation: Business Manager
Address: Avonmouth Drive, Alvaston
Main issues: Since being elected I have worked hard to stand up for local people on the issues that matter to them, being their champion. The many local improvements secured have come about from engaging with local people through monthly community walkabouts, known as Citizens on Patrol (COPs), surgeries and when people have contacted me. I have also developed strong partnerships with community groups, public services and voluntary sector groups serving the local community, so that we can work together for their benefit. As an Alvaston resident it would be an honour to continue to serve the community I care passionately about.

Age: 68

Address: Wingerworth Park Road, Spondon
Occupation: Retired
Main Issues: Boulton has been ill served by Labour over many years and I want to make a real difference in the area. There are a multitude of issues to do with crime and anti social behaviour and I intend to work with residents and other agencies to sort them out. Residents need to feel that they are supported in their community and that what they say can make a real difference to their lives. I will listen to what they have to say and act on their concerns. I have a strong track record of working in communities and have been a champion for those who want to make a difference in the areas they live. I will bring this expertise to Boulton

Do you have anything to declare? NoBrian Venn
Age: 68
Party: Liberal Democrats
Occupation: Retired
Address: Barncroft, Brayfield Road
Main issues: Traffic speeds on residential roads are often too high. Local residents should be consulted on reducing the speed limit on their roads to 20mph. Open space is important, and we need to protect existing space in the city, as well as ensure that new developments contribute valuable open space for their new residents and existing ones. The brown bin tax should be scrapped. It is already leading to more dumping, and doesn't encourage people to think about recycling.

I would like to work with local businesses to promote a more varied and diverse shopping centre and establish a traders association to work towards a vibrant and safe community.

Anything to declare? NoKaren Walsh
Party: Liberal Democrat
Age: 59
Occupation: Early retired
Address: Oregon Way, Chaddesden
Main issues: Low key nuisance behaviour continues to be an issue – dog fouling, litter, etc. Dumping is already becoming a bigger problem since the introduction of the brown bin tax by Labour. This needs to be reversed. As the city grows, parks and open spaces become more and more important, land designated as future park needs to be protected, including Brook Farm Fields. Speeds on residential roads are often too high, More awareness-raising and enforcement is needed – or even reducing the limit in some areas to 20mph.

Do you have anything to declare? NoMartin Stuart Jones
Party: Liberal Democrats
Age: 55
Occupation: Chartered Design Engineer
Address : Chain Lane, Littleover
Main issues: City-wide policies include scrapping Labour's brown bin tax, which has resulted in a very low service uptake, making collection less efficient and discouraging the vast majority of Derby households from recycling a significant quantity of green waste. If elected I will press the Council to accept central government funding to limit council tax increases. This helps keep money in resident's pockets.
Local issues include tackling dog fouling of Chellaston's streets, pressing local and central government for planning policies that place greater value on garden and green space amenity, rather than as building plot opportunities.

I want to bring balance and equality to the areas that are neglected in our ward. I will also fight for the 7.5 ton weight restriction to be enforced more effectively in our ward. Finally I am there to represent you, therefore I am always available to those who need help and will fight for you to give a true representation of Chellaston and Shelton Lock on Derby City Council.

Address: Highfields Park Drive, Derby
Main issues: We must continue to fight to protect services across the city in light of the devastating cuts being imposed on the people of Derby by the Conservative led government. These times of austerity also however present us with an opportunity to engage with our communities about how we can do things differently, our values as a city and how we make sure that people are engaged locally and their voices are heard. Locally I will work on key community issues, including the introduction of 20mph speed zones, road safety and keeping events like the Darley Park concert accessible to all.

Main Issues: I will vote to accept Government funds to enable Council Tax to be frozen for residents of the City. As a local party intent to scrap the Brown Bin Charge that Labour has introduced. I would like to work with local people to ensure that future developments are suitable for the area. Over the last few months many people have contacted me about speeding cars in the area. Where residents would like this reducing I will push for it. In the past I have managed to get many bad potholes and pavements repaired. I will always get bad ones repaired in the area.

Address: Radcliffe Avenue, Chaddesden
Main issues: I believe that Derwent Ward continues to make progress and this is achieved mainly by working together with the community. The main route for this is working with the Neighbourhood Manager and the Neighbourhood Forum and Board.
Residents also contact us through telephone and e-mail and it is, I believe, important to listen to the views of residents on issues that they feel are important to them and the community they live in. A good example of this is the Wollaton Road green space where proposals for new homes were shelved flowing issues raised by residents.

I know Derwent well as my first family home was in Walpole St. I know there are many issues to do with crime and anti-social behaviour in the Ward which I would tackle as a priority and I would also want to get a better housing deal for residents. I am a season ticket holder for Derby County and enjoy watching Derbyshire Cricket, in my social time I enjoy reading, walking and researching the history of Derby. I am standing to help the residents of Derwent fight the "Brown Bin Tax" cruelly put in by Labour and to make sure that facilities in this Ward are improved

Main Issues: As a mother and grandmother I am very concerned for my family's futures. Governments have admitted that multiculturalism has failed and yet they have increased the numbers coming here. This puts our identity, culture, freedom and security at risk. It's all down to the old gang parties who are all the same and all to blame. One million of our people have used food banks in the past 12 months and our soldiers are on the streets whilst this madness goes on unabated.

Bill was involved in the Roe Farm Lane development believing the building and activities would be an asset to our community. Little did he know that the Labour Council and Derwent Delivers would want it back. Local councillor meddling meant these projects ended up as a £39,000,000 waste of public money. Bill, and many local residents, are angry that no one was made to be accountable. Bill believes that the local community deserves answers and that those responsible are brought to book rather than swept under the carpet. If you support him he will support you.

Main issues: Derby should be run rationally not driven by party political dogma.
The council tax should not have been increased, using a coalition government grant.
Voluntary bodies that provide services to Derby residents more effectively than paid council staff should be used. In Littleover we support voluntary bodies that maintain local parks and flower beds magnificently.
Green open spaces should be maintained - using money from developers.

Age: 53
Occupation: Campaigner
Address: Kings Drive, Littleover
Main issues: For me, councillors being representatives for their area works both ways. They represent the people to the council, and they ought to represent the council back to the people. Most important is therefore keeping in touch regularly - and ensuring that people can get in touch with me. We do this through Focus newsletters.
Current top issues in the city and the area are: protecting our open spaces for future generations, making our roads and transport work better for all, reversing the brown bin tax and rebuilding Derby's position as a first rate recycling city, and treating the Neighbourhoods fairly by equalising funding across the city.
Do you support the Derby Telegraph's Anything to Declare Campaign? No. There are national rules about what convictions prevent someone standing for election, and what can be counted as 'spent'. As a body, the council should be representative of the people of Derby - gender, race, experience, etc. - to go beyond the nationally required rules will risk making involvement in politics even more exclusive than it already is. I do not believe his would not be good for the city overall. This campaign is old and tired and should be laid to rest.

Occupation: Freelance researcher/historian, also part time cataloguer for Bamfords Ltd.
Address: Carlton Road, Littleover
Main issues: I am strongly opposed to Labour's brown bin charge which has resulted in less recycling than before and I want to see community funding distributed equally for all parts of the City. I am keen to press for the reform of parking charges too, to help revitalise the historic centre of the City. I have long fought for much better quality new developments in Derby to compliment the City's incomparable historic fabric and I am also very keen to promote and improve the City's Museums through the Trust, of which I am proud to be a member.

Address: Netherwood Court, Derby.
Main Issues: As a former Councillor, I will bring experience and commitment to the residents of Littleover. I strongly support the axing of the Brown Bin Collection Charge, and a total freeze on local Council Tax. I will work hard to keep Littleover an attractive place to live. I will concentrate on a reduction in anti-social behaviour, improving access to public transport, improving traffic flow, and improving facilities for young people. From charity work to professional work I have a proven track record of delivery. My promise to all Littleover residents is total commitment.

Party: Labour
Age: 55
Occupation: Partly retired, partly voluntary work.
Address: Snelston Crescent, Littleover
Main Issues: In Littleover there are a number of areas of traffic management where inappropriate developments have taken place and others where action is needed. If elected, I will work to ensure that traffic management and parking in Littleover are appropriate for the people who live here.
I am concerned to maximise local accessibility for people with all types of disability. Having previously been a wheelchair user due to a serious spinal injury, I appreciate the difficulties lack of access can cause.
If elected, I will fight to continue the significant improvements in the quality of Littleover schools seen since Labour took control of the Council in 2012.
Do you support the Derby Telegraph's Anything to Declare campaign: No, I feel it is important that all people are allowed to rebuild their lives. The Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 is there for a good reason; it aids people rebuilding their lives and it also helps them become useful members of society again. People change and we must do everything will can to aid them to change for the better. We should remember that for the most serious offences convictions never becomes spent.

Occupation: IT Technician.
Address: Sedgemoor Way, Heatherton
Main Issues: There is a danger that further housing development in the Heatherton area will have a detrimental effect on residents throughout Littleover.
Burton Road in Littleover is at times very busy. There are a number of small potential improvements which cumulatively could significantly improve the situation. In the Heatherton area more facilities for young people need developing. It would be sensible for bus companies to divert local buses via the Royal Hospital on their way to the city.
There is no doctor's surgery in Littleover village. This is not a situation which will be easily remedied, but it seems worth investigating.

Address: King Alfred Street, Derby
Main Issues: I'm proud to be a native of Derby and feel compelled to give something back to my home city. With local communities feeling the pinch of challenging financial circumstances, the role of local councillors is now more important than ever. My experience in sports coaching around the world has given me unique opportunities to work with young people in different cultures and backgrounds. I have seen first hand the importance of local cohesion and effective leadership in creating a positive effect on the social environment. This collective focus is something I believe I can implement to fuel development in the Mackworth ward.

Party: Liberal Democrats
Age: 36
Occupation: Lecturer
Address: Langley Street, Derby
Main issues: The New Zealand area only kept recycling because of a strong community campaign. The loss of free brown bins also needs to be fought against, people need to be encouraged to recycle. If elected we would scrap the brown bin tax. Traffic speed is a big issue in some areas, and more use should be made of 20mph areas where people want these. Parking remains a problem in some places, and more needs to be done to encourage alternatives to driving, where this is practical. In the past I have campaigned for improved facilities in the ward, including the library, skate park and community centre. Things like this can help the community help itself to reduce problems of anti-social behaviour. I also have a strong interest in health and education which are vital for people's well-being.

Smear campaigns are well under way by the other parties they are frightened that you might upset the resident political class who are more interested in self interest than in serving you the general public. That is why we believe there should be a reduction in the number of councillors by a third saving £250,000 per year. Provide the first half hour of parking in the city centre for free to try to encourage people back into the city. Save Council care homes and day centres, be truthful to the electorate at all times.

I want to retain our Neighbourhood Officers and keep the co-operative working between local services to keep anti-social behaviour and crime low.

Main issues: To continue to work all year round for Mickleover with Cllr Hilary Jones.
I will continue to fight plans to develop on Mickleover's precious green spaces. These need protecting for future generations.
I want to see Labour's hated "Brown Bin Tax" scrapped. It is hitting residents in their pockets and risks increasing fly-tipping. Grants from the coalition government to freeze Council Tax should be accepted. It's appalling that Labour refused the government grant and hiked up Council Tax.
All areas of the city should get a fair share of Council grants

Occupation: Partner in consultancy business for the entertainment and lesuire industry
Address: Hindscarth Crescent, Mickleover
Main Issues: I have led the fight against Labour's Brown 'Bin Tax' in Mickleover and want to see it scrapped with a return to free collections. I also support the freezing of council tax. I think it's wrong that Mickleover's funding has been cut by Derby's Labour Council and given to areas like Normanton. I want to see fair and equal community funding, increasing it to £50k.
I continue to oppose housing developments being imposed on Mickleover. Our local schools, roads, doctor's surgeries & facilities cannot cope. We need to expand the City boundary to better protect established communities.

Main issues: For me one issue dominates, how best to deal with government cuts to council spending. I see both the Liberal Democrats and the Conservative parties, putting out leaflets about cuts made by the Labour controlled council, and the charge for the brown bin collection, but giving us no clue to what they would cut. I think it's only fair for the electorate to ask what would they cut and where would they raise extra money.
Do you support the Telegraph's anything to declare campaign? No. I firmly believe that all people should be allowed the chance to rebuild their lives, and become useful members of society. The Rehabilitation of Offenders Act is there to aid people in doing just that, we must remember that for the most serious offences the conviction never becomes spent.

Main Issues: My main aims are to make a ward that people are proud of living and working in. Sorting out the quality of many of the roads, streets and walkways is paramount to this. Normanton is a place people in other places should be jealous of, and a place the people living there should be immensely proud of. However it is harmed by the anti social behaviour of a minority who make life difficult for everyone else. I want to make Normanton a better place to live and work and to work with other agencies to drive down crime and nuisance which blights peoples' lives.

Main Issues: A married man who has lived in Oakwood since 1979, I have watched this area expand from a dirt track into a thriving and proud community. I have created initiatives over the past four years which have taken this residential area forward in terms of community spirit and facilities, but the job is never done! I do not play party politics, but apply robust representation and common sense to justified concerns.

Open space in the city is valuable, and we need to protect it from being nibbled away on housing or other development – indeed, much of Oakwood's open space is apparently still not been adopted by the council.

To this end, he has spent most of his adult life in academia, concentrating on computer science and its application and still lectures at Derby University and College. Since attending University Spencer's research has concentrated on 'E-governance' and 'Large scale optical fibre networking' this is why he is now trying to move his research from a theoretical to a practical solution.
This has led to Spencer joining UKIP and attempting to realize this dream. As such, were he to be elected, he would start this process by creating a smaller trial model within the ward of Spondon. This would involve a new form of gathering information on what the public want via a new website.
