Ellesmere Port and Bromborough is a constituency of the House of Commons in the UK Parliament.[2] It was first contested at the 2024 general election.[3] The seat is currently represented by Justin Madders of the Labour Party.

Boundaries

The constituency was created by the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, and is composed of the following wards:

  • The Borough of Cheshire West and Chester wards of Central & Grange, Ledsham & Manor, Netherpool, Strawberry, Sutton Villages, Westminster, Whitby Groves, Whitby Park, and Wolverham.
  • The Metropolitan Borough of Wirral wards of Bromborough and Eastham.[4]

The seat covers the majority of, and replaces, the Ellesmere Port and Neston constituency, comprising the town of Ellesmere Port, with Neston being included in the new seat of Chester North and Neston. It extends northwards to include the two Wirral Borough communities of Bromborough and Eastham from the abolished constituency of Wirral South.[5] The two parts of the constituency are not internally connected by any public road or path.
