Hello there!
It has been a busy few weeks at work so I have been unable to post much on here in that time but things have been happening still so here are two issues I would like to update you on!
The investigation into the proposed transit site for gypsies and travellers at Oakwood Farm was removed from the list after early development proposals concluded the site could not be altered to work without adversely affecting neighbours. This was a good decision, taken in the full glare of a passionate local population, with the option being openly announced from the moment it appeared and its removal from the list brought forward as soon as was possible. However, I feel that, for the first time in Cheshire history, the Labour Party tried to politicise the issue. Watch the debate at Executive here and let me know what you think.
The Ledsham & Manor Action Group has been formed, the Team Leaders have met and much action is underway, including a newsletter to be printed and delivered soon. If you can help, please let me know, especially with deliveries or the door-to-door petition we will be shortly organising.
Finally, on an unrelated note, I am taking part in the Movembercharity month. This is where men “donate” their faces and grow a moustache (and flash if desired, which is what I am doing) for the whole month of November. We do this to highlight men’s health issues, in particular the fact that thousands of men die every year in the UK of testicular or prostate cancer.
I would be very grateful if you could support the cause and sponsor me any amount you can afford, by going to http://mobro.co/GarethAnderson where I am also posting regular updates of how it is going.
My team at work are running it with a “cele’bro’ty” theme. Can you guess who I am aiming to be?
TTFN and thanks especially if you are able to sponsor me.
Gareth.
