Constituency Work

This is my fourth year that I have been a Councillor and I have continued to work hard for the constituents of Audenshaw.

I have dealt with many enquiries from constituents in my Ward. I have receive enquiries in many forms i.e. telephone calls, letters, e-mails, via advice surgeries as well as home visits and dealing with constituents calling to my home.

Members' Advice Surgeries

I have two regular monthly advice surgeries in Audenshaw, dealing with constituents complaints, requests and enquiries.

I have continued to attend the training sessions, which were arranged for Elected Members.

Achievements During the Year

It has been a privileged to represent the residents of Audenshaw for the past 5 years and I am looking forward to representing Audenshaw for the next 4 years.
During the past 12 months I have been busy working to make Audenshaw a safer place to live. During this time crime has fallen, anti social behaviour has reduced.

I feel that the continued campaigning to introduce Ali gating schemes have helped to reduce crime.

I am pleased that CCTV cameras at the motorway underpass at Lumb Lane have helped in reducing crime in the area.

With pathways and road surfaces being renewed year on year it demonstrates that Audenshaw is being represented by your Councillors.

I am looking forward to the next 12 months and will continue to campaign for better facilities for Audenshaw residents. A lot has been done over the past year and much more needs to be done. I am looking forward to working with Councillor Maria Bailey, as a team we will continue to work hard for the residents of Audenshaw and Tameside.
