A good opportunity for Reform if they choose to take it

Reform didn't take the opportunity. Candidates for South Oxhey (Waford Rural PC) on 12 December are:

Danielle KING (Lab)
Shanti MARU (C)
Rhys SOUTHALL (Lib Dem)

Added in edit: I've just noticed that Maru was parish councillor for the ridiculously-named Ashridge ward from 2015 to 2019. So, if successful, he knows what he's letting himself in for......

Thank you - I've updated the list above. I've also added the nominations for Gwynedd, whose understanding of the deadline for publication of SOPNs appears to be "the following Wednesday". One for Tony Otim's hall of shame, perhaps.
