Dear Sir,
Due to two resignations it became necessary for the Council to elect two new members to the Council.
Whilst I am not telling people how to vote, I think voters need to be aware of a few facts.
There are too many members on the Council who are grandma’s and grandad’s. I have been working to get that changed and bring some youth onto the Council. My vote will go to Gareth Wright the candidate for Byerley Park, Horndale and Cobblers Hall Ward. I feel that it would be great to support young energetic candidates who want to make a difference to our area. Gareth is married with two children and lives in the middle of the ward, having originally trained as a teacher, he now leads on energy efficiency projects so has lots to offer for both residents and the Council. The other candidate is Simon Hocking covering the West Ward once again he is a young energetic candidate for the Council, it is hoped that, if elected, they can breath new life on to the Council.
