Meeting with VIA for proposed roadways projects
My primary requests are
Full resurfacing of High Pavement from Prospect Place to Spring Bank roundabout.
The road is full of pot holes & urgently needs repair
Resurfacing of the pavement on The Twitchell along side of the recreation ground
New Pelican crossing for the Leamington shops. One set on The Twitchell & one set on Leamington Drive. This area is extensively used by elderly residents & schoolchildren. Residents have requested these for safety reasons.
Trust this information is helpful

Sutton Christian Fellowship Church
Location-High Pavement Sutton in Ashfield
I visited the church to understand their charity work.
The church operates a daily drop-in centre for the homeless & less well off local residents offering morning hot drinks & snacks daily (except Friday)
They also operate a “free food “ outlet for local people to use. This operates Saturday, Monday, Wednesday & Friday. On Friday they also provide on collection frozen food hampers for a donation of £3, or £5. This helps to fund & run the operation.
It’s brilliantly run by Kevin & Hayley who organise the food distribution along with several volunteers.
The kitchen was in need of repair & upgrades.
On seeing how this operation runs to help those in need, I was more than happy to donate £500.00 from my councillors fund.
Great people like Kevin & Hayley + the support volunteers are needed in our community. Long may they keep helping

Contacted in late May by a resident of Turnberry Avenue Larwood regarding the awful condition of their road. After my visit to site, I contacted NCC roadway team, VIA who sent their inspection team to visit the location. After a meeting it was decided that the road needed urgent repairs. The decision was by a hot-box method & a repair date fixed for October. Work was completed on time & speaking to a local resident stated what an excellent job & service was done, I would like to thank Carl &Emma from alongside their team for a professional project.
