    Hello - and welcome to our live coverage.

    Â鶹ԼÅÄ Radio Northampton has invited six of the candidates for a live debate hosted in Wellingborough by Annabel Amos, and we will be previewing and following the discussion here.

    The live guests, by alphabetical order, are:

    Ana Savage Gunn (Liberal Democrats)

    Ben Habib (Reform UK)

    Helen Harrison (Conservative)

    You can find a full list of candidates here.

    The debate begins at 09:00 GMT and you can listen via Â鶹ԼÅÄ Sounds, as well as on your radio.
