Achievements During the Year
I used £2,000 of my locally determined funding for the Memorial Hall in Wolverley. Substantial improvements have now been made here which included outside funding in the region of £100,000.
I raised £3,000 for the Wolverley Pyramid show which was held at the Glades Leisure Centre which was all sold out.
I also donated some of my locally determined funding for Trimpley Viewpoint for hard standing and bollards to stop vehicles.
I donated £1,000 to the All Saints Drop In Centre for administration to enable people to come in and discuss a variety of issues such as debt, County or District matters. This is a voluntary organisation that a number of agencies are involved in.
Members' Surgeries
I have held various surgeries on a regular basis at All Saints Church and also go and talk to residents personally regarding any problems they may be experiencing.
