Pride in our local area is important

🆕 We are getting new Timperley Village signs
In between bigger things, I have been pushing the Council to replace the “Welcome to Timperley” signs where the letters are peeling off, the crest has faded and the posts are rusting away.

ℹ️ First Impressions matter
We want people to shop in the Village, we want people to respect the public spaces and we want it look nice.

The trouble is, they were put in many, many years ago as a "one-off" with no plans for when they needed replacing, in an era before the current digital records, so there is no definitive list of them all.

✅ Good news
So it took a while, but I finally got a commitment in writing back in February that we should have new signs "in 2 or 3 months" – which brings us to May. So I chased it up again.

Just wanted to share with the everyone that new signs are being made and I’ve received confirmation in writing the new poles for the signs are due in a week - so we should get shiny new signs soon.

🔶️ Your Timperley Central councillors were out today, clearing away the weeds in the old raised bed on Timperley Green.
🌻 A great focal point that needed some love and care.
🪴 The outgoing Mayor of Trafford, Jane Brophy, has gifted our parks and green spaces with a hydrangea plant each as a lasting legacy of her year as Mayor and we thought there was no better place for Timperley Green's gift.
💐 We have spent today clearing away the weeds, and adding some new soil before planting the hydrangea in the middle, there is more soil to add and plants over the coming weeks.
🧡 Thank you to all the local residents who stopped and chatted to us while we worked.
Cllr Shaun Ennis, Cllr Julian Newgrosh & Cllr Simon Lepori

Vote Lib Dem on May 7th!

The local Conservatives have us blocked from viewing and commenting on all their posts, but a kind resident sent over a screenshot of an earlier post.
This wild retelling of history is just another example of how low the local Tories have gone, in their desperate attempts to remain relevant.
We could rebuff everything they say about us, but the truth is we are busy getting on with the job of being your representatives and there are so many lies and misrepresentations that it would take too much valuble time away from that.
We are currently canpaigning to get our colleagues across Timperley elected and re elected this May, so we can continue the work we do -

🔶️Free school meals auto enrolment
🌳Bidding & winning £119,000 for local green spaces
🏞Flood prevention and waterway management
🗑Holding Amey and the council to account
🏥Making sure our social care systems work
📝Scrutinising council decisions and choices
👔Supporting our village and local businesses

You all can judge us on our work, the Tories need to stop talking our community down.

Thank you and vote Lib Dem on May 7th.

Trafford Conservatives have nothing to offer but negativity and false promises.
They lost the trust of our communities long ago.
Instead of backing local people, they talk our area down.
On May 7th, vote Liberal Democrats.

Help wanted: Local Heroes & Community Champions.

As we begin a new year, I wanted to share a few reflections from my time as a Liberal Democrat councillor here in Timperley.

Being a councillor is, at its heart, about community and the everyday things that affect people’s lives. It means listening to residents and helping to resolve practical issues — from potholes and street lighting, to parks and green spaces, traffic and road safety, planning decisions, and supporting our schools and education services. It’s about being visible, accessible, and willing to take up concerns that might otherwise be overlooked.

Good local government also depends on strong scrutiny. Trafford is better served when there are independent voices on the council prepared to ask questions, challenge decisions, and hold the administration to account. Where one party dominates, it becomes easier for decisions to go unchallenged and for residents’ concerns to be missed. Liberal Democrat councillors play an important role in making sure that doesn’t happen.

You don’t need to be a career politician to be a councillor. Some of the best colleagues I’ve worked with are people who care deeply about their neighbourhoods, local services, the environment, and opportunities for young people — and who want to make a practical difference. If you’ve ever thought about getting more involved, whether by joining the Liberal Democrats or exploring the idea of standing as a candidate in the local elections this May, I would warmly encourage you to do so.

Local democracy relies on people stepping forward, and the New Year feels like a good moment to reflect on how we can all play a part in shaping Trafford’s future.

If you’ve ever thought about getting more involved, whether by joining the Liberal Democrats or exploring the idea of standing as a candidate in the local elections this May, I would warmly encourage you to do so.

With best wishes for the New Year,

Councillor Jane Brophy - Liberal Democrats
Liberal Democrat Councillor for Timperley North

Bus Stop Seating 🚌

Residents around the Grange have asked me if this bus shelter could have some seating - to make it easier for those who can't stand for a long time, so I took the issue up with Transport for Greater Manchester.

After some back and forth, and assessments by TfGM, today they told me when the next stock of bus shelter benches comes in some seating will be installed here.
