Hello Stanwell

today Sunday the 29th of November we took park in the great tree race, there were many teams of all types, a well and worthy team from Stanwell and a team made up from Spelthorne Councillors among many others.

Di spite the weather the teams went into battle in water sodden ground with the wind and rain always threatening but in true Spelthorne and typical of the people of Stanwell we battled on with a smile on our faces, Stanwells team did very well, as did all the teams.

Stanwell I am sure would like to be included in my thanks too all those involved in the organisation of this event, but also to all those who took part We say thank you.

Today I had the privilege to attend the Metropolitan Remembrance Service for Officers who lost their lives in the line of duty.

I had the great privilege of meeting Sir Paul Stephenson QPM. I also met the Mayor of London, Boris Johnson who was only too willing to be photographed with your very own

ward councillor - me!

Rest assured I never missed the opportunity to promote the positive aspects of Stanwell and Stanwell Moor.

Long lane Rec

This area and buildings have been targeted by an appalling level of anti social behaviour. I had intended to post photographs of the damage caused, but why would I wish to subject you to the views of this mindless destruction of public property.

I cannot believe that this level of damage was not either heard or seen by the good people of Stanwell.

So I ask you all, if anyone has any information on the damage caused Long Lane Rec please forward this information, in confidence to:

Police - 08451252222

Crime stoppers -0800555111

When using the 08451252222 you can ask for an officer not to call upon you at your home.

I thank the people of Stanwell for helping me to make Stanwell a better place to live.

Christmas Party

Stanwell Sure Start Childrens Centre are having a Christmas party at Stanwell Moor Village Hall. I and local Stanwell Moor Businesses think this is fantastic. Some of the local companies, like Charlie Morris, Flower Vision and Passiflora have worked with me to support this venture. This is a very good start for our Village Hall and for Stanwell Moor. In time I hope that all Stanwell North businesses will come on board and support the local community in Stanwell.

My thanks to Kathy Croft Chair of the residence committee and Jim for there help in aiding me with the fight to get the ditches cleared in Stanwell Moor.

Stanwell Moor has been flooded on many occasions, we have spent the last nine months pushing for the ditches to be cleared,we are assured that the culvert will be cleaned before the end of November. I have a meeting on Monday 23November with officers of Spelthorne B.C. were i hope that an agreement will be forth coming on the continued maintenance of the said ditches.

Good news for the youths of Stanwell Moor,

Stanwell Moor now has a multi all weather pitch and an adventure play area,this has taken time to put funding in place for this to happen but as the picture show we are there.

I have optained 20 footballs, which as soon as the new area is signed off by Spelthorne B.C I will hand over the footballs to the youths so they can enjoy the new equipment.

Dont forget you can contact me by e-mail

As your ward Councillor I am hear to help you.

We are well into November with our roads and pavements in a poor condition, and drains that do not work (causing localised flooding). So after many attempts to get these issues rectified I have written to the chief exec of Surrey County Council asking for these matters to be addressed. I am awaiting a response.

As many people have noticed and remarked on the fantastic work that has been done at Clare Road shops. All the shrubs have been cut back and a intensive litter pick of this area has been done.

This work was done by community payback and Cllr Kevin Flurry working hard to improve Stanwell. There is an untaxed van parked on the pavement in Elizabethan way which is now awaiting collection by Spelthorne B.C.

Pathways in Park Road have been cleared, along with the footpath running from Park Road to Town Lane Rec.

We are now awaiting delivery of the Christmas lights for both Stanwell and Stanwell Moor. We are hoping to have the trees up and decorated for the second week of December.

As residents of Stanwell Moor you will all, I am sure, remember the Reigate and Banstead initative. part of which was a promise to improve Stanwell Moor Rec for the young and teanagers. We are nearly there now with, as you can see in the photo above, the installation of a multi all weather sports pitch, an adventure play area. I have also asked for new full sized goals with nets for the football pitch, which along with the refurbishment of the young childrens play area and the youth shelter, will put the finishing touches on what is a much improved area. I believe as your local councillor that although some things have taken longer than I would have wished, we have got there in the end.

There are many other improvements coming along, one of which is that I, along with Stanwell Moor Village Hall Committee, will be starting a coffee/tea morning.

Park Road Car Park/Glenneagles

It is with much personal regret that the Council has sold this land to A2D. Stanwell Village and your ward councillors fought this sale.

But we won a small victory when this project by A2D came before planning, Key Stanwell residents stood up against this planning application. All your ward councillors stood side by side the people of Stanwell and quite rightly so.

I have invited A2D to sit down with myself and six of Stanwell Village key people to find a way forward. We await their response.
