WORKING FOR OUR AREA, IN OUR AREA!
It's been another busy week, in between meetings I have been out and about across St Barnabas, speaking to fellow residents about issues that are important to them.
I've also reported several issues in our area that need attention, including potholes, fly tipping and even a sinkhole!
If there's something you've spotted that you think needs attention, or anything else you think I may be able to help with, please get in contact via the link below 👇

FLY TIPPED SOFA - DO YOU RECOGNISE IT?
A sofa has been fly tipped in the back alleyway of Frank Webb Avenue near the rear entrance to Underwood West Academy.
This is a footpath used every day by children and parents. It's not acceptable in our community. I have put in a request to clear this item.
If you have any information on where this came from, please call 0300 123 5011 and quote reference 6818713
Remember, fly tipping is illegal and those identified doing so can be fined.
You can report fly tipping for clearance by calling 0300 123 5011, by downloading the FixMyStreet app on your phone, or online:

FOULKES AVENUE - POTHOLE REPAIRS COMPLETED
I have been pushing for some time to get many areas around our roads fixed, with the limited budget available at present.
Much work has been carried out recently, including Foulkes Avenue which no longer resembles the surface of the moon! The area around Foulkes Avenue/Smith Grove has been resurfaced.
As we head into winter, with wet and freezing weather the potholes will become a problem again.
LETS GET THEM FIXED! Please report any potholes you see by calling 0300 123 5020, via fixmystreet app or online:
