Alex Chalk is the Member of Parliament Cheltenham and the Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice. He has previously served as HM Solicitor General for England and Wales, and Minister for Prisons and Probation.

Prior to his election, Alex practised as a barrister in cases concerning terrorism, international fraud, and homicide.

As Minister, Alex took the Domestic Abuse Bill through the Commons. He also launched a scheme to provide accommodation to prison leavers, and expanded the Clink Kitchen Scheme to help thousands of prisoners secure qualifications. As Solicitor General, Alex successfully referred a number of unduly lenient sentences to the Court of Appeal, resulting in tougher penalties for more than 60 offenders.

On the backbenches Alex has campaigned energetically for financial support for Cheltenham – securing £35m for a new secondary school, £39m for a new hospital wing at Cheltenham General, £23m for the Cheltenham Cyber Park, and delivering a more generous funding formula for Cheltenham schools. He also led the successful campaign to block plans to shut Cheltenham A&E.

Alex has successfully introduced two Private Member’s Bills: one which doubled the maximum sentence for stalkers following the ordeal of a local GP, and the Net Zero legislation.

He lives in Cheltenham with his wife and three children.

The Patrons Club was established to raise vital funds for the Association so that we can fight and WIN local elections and help Alex Chalk win for the Conservatives in Cheltenham.  We are so lucky to have Alex representing us and Patrons Club is determined to do all we can to help him win.

My name is Lucy Barker and I lead the Cheltenham Conservative Patrons Club. The Club was re-launched in 2023 following the Pandemic and is a fine dining club which usually meets 4 times a year. Our suppers are usually held on a Friday evening and are attended by Alex Chalk and inspiring conservative speakers. For 2023, we are calling these dining events ‘In Conversation’ evenings, which take the form of an interview. Both of our events this year sold out and very well received. We have raised over £2,000 this year but need to keep going as we start campaign preparations for an anticipated Autumn 2024 election.

Patrons Club membership costs £100 per year and is a donation to the Association so that our councillors and our very special MP, Alex Chalk can wage effective campaigns and WIN!

As a Patrons Member, you will be able to benefit from discounted tickets to all of our events and will be doing that little BIT extra for Alex and the local Association.

If you are able to support us by joining the Patrons Club, please make your £100 payment to:
