Bede is an electoral ward in the borough of Nuneaton and Bedworth in north Warwickshire, England, forming part of the urban area around Nuneaton. It is largely residential, with a mix of housing from different eras and local parades of shops and community facilities that serve everyday needs; like many parts of the borough it sits within easy reach of the town’s transport links and green corridors into the surrounding countryside.
The ward reflects the wider area's industrial and social history - the legacy of manufacturing and mining in the Midlands - and has a strong local community identity, with schools, community centres and occasional regeneration projects aimed at improving public spaces and services. Its name recalls the long-standing habit of commemorating historic figures and gives the area a modest but recognisable identity within the borough.
