Section 3: Community Involvement
I have attended two PACT meetings in the last 12 months, which have been started again in our community. We have had quite a good turnout from residents, and we have been able to sort out some of the issues, especially in regard to antisocial parking when attendees for training are parking in residential parking spots when they are using the training unit in Gamson Close.
Also, I have been involved with local church or local community events that have been taking place, and my Community Leadership Fund donation actually went towards helping fund the community fridge. Myself and others took part in “I love your place” community event, in which I'd been nominated for an award for unsung hero in the community and I won that with my husband, who is also a Councillor for this area, for the work we are doing in and around the community care.
Section 4: Assisting Constituents
I continue to support residents when they need support with signposting to areas in which they hadn't received the help they need. Recently, I've worked with a resident who was unhappy with the state that a utilities company had left parts of Meredith Green and I had an update this week in which she said that they were coming out to sort it out and, if they weren't happy then we were to get back in touch with them. We've started working closely with Community Housing again, within the area, and I've had meetings with the Chief Executive. Fly tipping is still ongoing within the ward and we are now taking pictures with the “What3Words” app, which identifies the exact location of where the fly tipping has taken place.
