Enjoyment of being a Councillor!

In a few minutes off to my surgery at the Sandbunker.

Tomorrow will be an interesting day, will be joining local residents and council officers for an estate walkabout at Vincent Square in Noel Park. These walkabouts give Councillors, Residents and Council Officers the opportunity to see what is good, not so good and poor and how we can improve them. These happen all over the Borough and allows us the chance to be there for residents at a time that suits them.

In the evening, I'll be attending a couple of meetings with local residents, being the Friends of Noel Park (the park) and then rushing over to the Parkside Malvern Residents Association - it means missing the Labour Group meeting, however I feel it important to be out in the community with the people that voted for us last May and that is one of the joys of being a community Councillor. OK, you may not get everything done that you would like, but you try your best.

It is about caring for the people where they live, because I live there too.

Have a good evening!
