Wallisdown & Winton West is an electoral ward in the unitary authority of Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole in England, covering the north‑western suburbs of Bournemouth around Wallisdown and the western side of Winton. The area sits along key routes such as Wallisdown Road (A3049) and mixes residential streets with local shopping parades, small business and light industrial estates, and pockets of social housing.

Historically Winton grew as a late‑Victorian suburb and the ward still shows that layered development, with inter‑war terraces, post‑war estates and newer retail and business parks. Its proximity to green spaces and nearby institutions such as Bournemouth University, plus accessible public transport into the town centre, gives the ward a socially mixed, community‑minded character with a range of local shops, cafés and community groups.
