Bowdon deserves better council services
Council tax goes up while our basic services such as fixing the potholes and bin collections are falling. Don't you think we deserve better?

Fix the potholes in Bowdon

The roads in Bowdon are quite simply shocking. They just can't get any worse. Labour-run Trafford Council has failed to fix our roads after promising they would and now the potholes are dangerous to both motorists and cyclists. ​

I am committed to fixing the roads and I need your help to identify the problem spots. I commit to fixing potholes across Bowdon.

Tackling crime and having more police on our streets

As your local councillor, it deeply concerns me to hear about the crimes being committed in our community. I have been informed that residents have had their cars stolen, houses burgled, and even been victims of armed robbery. It's unacceptable that our community is being subjected to this kind of criminal activity.​ 

As your representative, I am committed to working with GM Police and Trafford Council to make sure that our community gets the resources it needs to feel safe and secure. I want to assure you that as your councillor, I am here to listen to your concerns and advocate on your behalf.

 

I demand more police on our streets and proven crime-cutting measures, such as CCTV, increased street lighting and Neighbourhood Watch Schemes.

Every child has a place in a good local school

As our community grows, so too does the need for more school places. It's a matter of great concern that our local secondary schools are reaching capacities and that some children may be missing out on the education they deserve. 

 I, as a father of a school-aged daughter, am committed to resolving these annual problems by taking the case directly to the government. We believe that every child in Trafford should have the opportunity to attend a school in their local area, and we will work tirelessly to make this a reality.

Save Jubilee Cent

It is not only Altrincham Town Hall that is under threat. Labour seems to be dragging their feet on a Council pledge to rebuild Bowdon's busy Jubilee community centre. Many community groups use the centre and a replacement is very much needed. Other local facilities are busy or too costly to hire. 

I am committed to pressing the Council to stand by the original pledge to build a new community centre on the site.

20 mph zones in school areas

As a parent myself, I know that there is nothing more important than the well-being of our children. I believe that every child deserves to feel safe as they travel to and from school. We need to take action to ensure that our communities are safe for them, and that means establishing 20 mph zones in local school areas.

 

I am committed to working with the Trafford Council, parents, and communities to make this a reality.

Improve our parks and protect green spaces

Parks and green spaces provide important ecosystem services, such as improving air and water quality and providing habitats for wildlife. They also provide opportunities for residents to engage in physical activity, socialize, and connect with nature. Prioritizing the improvement and protection of parks and green spaces is crucial for promoting community well-being, enhancing biodiversity, and combatting climate change.

I am committed to investing in and protecting these valuable resources, which can enhance the quality of life for residents and promote a healthy and sustainable Bowdon community for generations to come.
