Tom Pickup

I'm the Reform UK county councillor for Padiham and Burnley West, elected to Lancashire County Council in May 2025. Since May 2026 I've served as the council's Cabinet Member for Adult Social Care.

I grew up in this area, and I care about transparency, accountability, and getting value out of public money. Before Adult Social Care I led on the council's finances and efficiency. Whatever the brief, the approach stays the same.

I dig into the numbers and I ask the questions that need asking. The people paying the bills have a right to know where their money goes.
