This report reflects my third year as a Kirklees councillor representing Dewsbury West.
Over the past year I have continued assisting residents with housing applications, waste collections, planning applications and school appeals to name just a few.
Locally I have secured funding and set up five new groups - Beckets TRA, Pilgrim TRA , 20/20 Foundation , Westtown Irish dancing club and St Paulinus parents group. The latter of which have just run a year 6 study support group for pupils at St Paulinus School.
I have continued to support the Dewsbury Moor big lottery partnership and took part in interviews for a new development worker. I will also take up my position as a trustee in due course.
I have continued to support the various resident, sports, schools and faith groups.
Further afield I have played a valuable role in my position on the Environment Agency flood and coastal committee, in securing funding for feasibility studies to protect communities and businesses in Dewsbury and Huddersfield.
I also helped to steer YPO through a major development year in it's formation as a limited company, where I now sit as a director.
In my fourth year I will take the role of Dewsbury and Mirfield district committee chair. A role which I am really looking forward to.
