Dear Sir,

I would like to thank all those Newton Aycliffe residents who put their faith in me and their polling slips in the ballot box last week. I am humbled that residents of Newton Aycliffe elected me as not only a Durham County Councillor but also a Town Councillor to represent them on Great Aycliffe Town Council.

I have made a commitment to this town, which I love and wish to serve you to the best of my ability. To this end you will see me walking around various parts of my ward making myself available for a chat so please do not hesitate to approach me with any issues you may have. If I don’t have a ready answer for you, I will make it my business to find out. Councillors’ surgeries will also be available for you to attend and my phone number will appear in the local press. I do not want anyone saying that they haven’t a chance to meet me as I feel fervently that I work for you, not a party.

Can I ask that you point out issues which I may not be aware of, if you think that I may be able to help. Once again thank you for putting your trust in me.

Cllr Ken Robson

West Ward – Tel: 01325 321471
