A wet Friday evening in didn't dampen our spirits as the Liberal Democrat team were out knocking doors and speaking with residents again. A few issues picked up, some kind words of encouragement, and many people saying they will be backing the Liberal Democrats in this year's local elections in May 🙂

Yesterday Councillor Dave Ashmore & I met with some members of the Cycle Forum to discuss ways we can improve things for cycling around . A very helpful discussion and we look forward to seeing what things can get done here. Thanks to the PCF for spending some time with us.

Had a great time at the Fratton lantern parade tonight. Even got to wear a high vis as I was volunteering, helping marshall the parade and manage the other volunteers.

This evening Councillor Dave Ashmore & I helped steward at the annual Lantern Parade, as part of the Fratton Big Local Festival of Lights.

Fantastic to see the lanterns that people had made over the last few weeks, and being part of the parade down Fratton Road to St. Mary's Church.

Lots of fun for the local community! A big thank you to all who volunteered to help and organise this 😀

Spent Saturday speaking with more residents and delivering our latest Liberal Democrat Focus newsletter in the area.

Lots of positive conversations on the doorsteps and logging some issues to help with. People have been grateful for the work that we've been pushing for to allow them to have their say on a Residents Parking Zone. Thanks to everyone who came along and helped out today.
