Better Play at Churchfields School, South Woodford

 Cllr Linda Huggett, cabinet member for leisure, culture and the olympics said, “We are committed to ensuring the borough’s young people have access to adequate play facilities and the work undertaken at Churchfields represents the latest in an ongoing programme of improvements to parks and open spaces throughout Redbridge”.

By Election landslide in Larkswood

 Edwin Northover was overwhelmingly voted in as Conservative councillor for Larkswood last night (19th March), polling a stunning 73% share of the vote 

In the borough's 4th by election since last October, nearly 2000 voters turned out for the poll- triggered by the death of Councillor John Walter late last year. Full story

Following the count held at Rushcroft School, a tired but jubilant Edwin said, "I am delighted at the result.  I'm planning to hit the ground running and doing what I was voted to do: serve the people of Larkswood to the best of my abilities"

Chingford remembers war heroes     

Local dignitaries assembled at the Chingford war memorial on Remembrance Sunday to remember war veterans from conflicts past & present.

At precisely 11am two minutes silence was observed by citizens and local officials, including MP for Chingford & Woodford Green the Rt Hon Iain Duncan Smith.

Following the laying of wreaths, the Epping Forest Pipers led a procession to the Church of St Peter and St Paul where a service was held.

 

By-election victory in Valley ward for Jemma Hemsted

 Conservatives were celebrating on Thursday (November 6th) after a resounding victory for Conservative candidate Jemma Hemsted in the Valley ward.

The Conservatives gained 1183 votes , more than the combined votes cast for the Lib Dem and Labour candidates, who came second and third respectively.

"I'm delighted to be chosen by the residents of Valley to represent them, and look forward to joining Councillors Alan Siggers and Laurence Wedderburn in serving them" Ms Hemsted said after her victory.

The position of councillor became vacant following the sad death of John Gover in September.

Confusion remains over Assembly Hall charges

Thanks to the pressure from the people who attended the Community Council Meetings and your local Conservative Councillors, the hire charges for the Assembly Hall have been revised.

There is even a scheme for concessionary charges for local charities. What a pity then that in order to be considered for a concession the council makes each organisation fill in a 15 page application form.  In addition, even despite the change in hire charges very few local organisations will actually be able to afford the council's charges if they want to use the hall at weekends.
