The Advice Shop is open every Saturday from 10-12, we deliver a Focus Newsletter to every house in the Ward every month. We also deliver targeted Street Letters to residents about specific issues.
I deal with a huge volume of Casework much of it involving housing problems and planning issues.

I try to attend the Pop-up Café at St Georges Church on the first Wednesday of the month as this enables me to meet other local residents.
