Your Local Labour Team Working For Our Community

*Many residents contacted West Park’s Labour Team after the recent gale force winds lashed the local area. Residents living along Prescot Road called Labour Councillor Marie Rimmer after a street light was seen swaying in the high winds.Marie said “The light column’s concrete base was breaking up and the situation was becoming dangerous. Thankfully it was repaired quickly and I’d like to thank the residents who contacted me about this issue.”

*Elderly residents in Marsden Avenue contacted your Labour Team after the fence to the rear of their properties was blown down by the high winds. Labour Campaigner Marlene Quinn said “There were obvious security concerns as the gardens backed onto an unlit park. We contacted the housing repair team and a new fence was erected at the rear of the bungalows.”

*Many residents contacted your Labour Team after a huge tree fell across the footpath in Linear Park. Marlene Quinn said “There were reports that small children were climbing along the fallen tree and there could be an accident. The tree was removed after we contacted the council and pressed for swift action”
