Section 3: Community Involvement
I am a Director and Board Member of Kidderminster BID and was also a Board Member of
Worcestershire LEP for the first few months of the year.

Fire and Rescue Authority and sit on the Planning and Standards and Ethics Committees.
I am heavily involved in the community that I represent, I am also regularly meeting residents,
looking at issues, attending events and attending all 3 Parish Councils on a regular basis, in
conjunction with my two ward colleagues Cllrs Emily Bourne and Nick Wilson.
Section 4: Assisting Constituents
I have responded to every issue that has been raised to me by constituents throughout the year
and have always provided updates as appropriate. This includes talking on the phone and also
meeting face to face at locations around the ward.
I have contact from residents on a weekly basis and the main issues within the ward have been
illegal parking and the request for more regular enforcement and also car parking charges. I have also supported many residents with Community Housing issues.
I have regularly engaged with the local community and the local traders and supported and
advised, where I can, to help mitigate the impact on the Bewdley during the flood defence works.
I also deliver a regular newsletter to all households within the ward together with my two
colleagues. We deliver on average 3 per year. I also put regular posts on Facebook and share
these into the community groups.

I represent Bewdley and Rock ward which is a mixed ward with a mix of a historic Georgian Town
and large rural areas. This covers Bewdley Town Council and the 2 Parish Councils of Arley and
