Section 3: Community Involvement
In my role as District Councillor for the Wyre Forest Rural Ward, I attend regularly meetings of each of the six Parish Councils within this ward. Together with my two Ward colleagues, I arrange information/fact gathering meetings for topical issues. I attend Friends Groups' and Charitable Groups' events.
Section 4: Assisting Constituents
I respond swiftly to residents' queries and concerns via telephone, letter, email, or personal contact. I deliver regular newsletters to the whole of my ward and include easy contact details. During this year, I have been Deputy Leader of the Opposition group within the District Council. I am always available to help all residents, not only within my ward but within Wyre Forest District. I provide news and updates for constituents on social media.
Section 5: Supplementary Information
I am an active person who enjoys walking and meeting people. I enjoy watching Rugby and Football and support Samurai Judo Club with Competition assistance. I play guitar recreationally.
