Notes:
Section 1: Ward Activities (including Surgeries)
Through my Community Leadership Fund monies, I have:
a.Initiated the Cobham Wood project, with the aim of improving the natural beauty of the area and protecting the wildlife for the entire community to enjoy. This continues to go from strength to strength with lottery funding.
b.Helped Wyre Forest Dog Rescue by donating £500 towards the well being and relocation of dogs to new homes.I also donated personal items to raise money.
c.Made a donation to Kidderminster Hospital's prostate cancer fund.
d.Successfully helped with the completion of the clean up of Hoobrook War Memorial. The memorial was erected in honour of the people of Hoobrook who went to the First World War. I felt this was a worthwhile project.
e.Donated £250 towards the flag poles of St Mary's Church, Kidderminster in support of the British Legion.
f.Facilitated the cleanup and resurfacing of the Bridleway (known as route 537) after lengthy negotiations, to allowing access for wheelchairs, prams and walkers to the town centre.
g.I have helped in arranging the delivery of some new grit bins and dog litter bins for Spennells estate.
h.Secured funding for the resurfacing of affected pathways in the Aggborough Ward.
Section 2: Council Meetings
Audit Committee, Corporate Resources Scrutiny Committee, Council, Kidderminster Educational Foundation, Chairman of Miscellaneous Functions and Regulatory Services Review Panel.
Section 3: Achievements
I have been helping to support Help the Heroes with their calendar campaign (registered charity no: 18113820374A).
I am working with the relevant County Councillor to introduce calming measures to reduce speed limits on Wilden Lane in areas where it is 60 mph down to 40 mph.
After 18 months of making representations to Worcestershire County Council regarding the flooding issue outside Heronswood Primary School crossing, work has now successfully been completed.
Road repairs are well underway in Heronswood. Potholes are being filled and future works are planned but due to the severe winter, road repairs will take longer to complete.
Vandalism is still a prime concern and even though I support the police in their efforts, I will continue to promote to residents the need for them to be aware of their own personal safety.
I continue to look for funding to improve Dunlin Drive play area.
