As a Stanwell North Councillor, I am determined to use all resources in order to improve the area and the quality of life for the people in Stanwell and Stanwell Moor.

I have meetings with key agencies raising problems that are of concern in our area. On Friday I had a meeting with Annette Williamson from Surrey CC on the state of the roads, paths, cycle ways and the state of the drains. I am now pushing for Stanwell North to be give priority on these issues.

Many thanks to all the people who saw Annette Williamson and me walking around Stanwell North on Friday at 07:30 in the morning, and came across and aided me putting Stanwell Norths case across to the county officer.

I am working with the probation service (community payback). We are working through Stanwell North in block fashion, opening up and clearing paths, removing suckers and low tree branches,as well as litter picking.

Community payback are at present working in Stanwell Moor. I list below the areas that either have been done or will be done within the next week.

Stawell Moor village hall [redecoration]
Stanwell Moor car park [Brambles cut back and litter collected]
Pocket Park, Leylands lane, Haws lane, Spout lane, Horton road.

As soon as this work is completed we shall be moving across into Stanwell.

Stanwell North

Good news for the people of Stanwell, with the help and support of your local businesses Stanwell for the first time have a Christmas Tree with lights. The tree will be located on the memorial green in front of the church.

Father William is going to hold Christmas carols around the tree. The dates will be well published near the time, but please come and support this new event for Stanwell.

I have again chased Surrey County Council over the state of the roads and paths in Stanwell North. I am awaiting a reply!


For all of you that did attend the new style Have Your Say which had a very good turn out, I thank you.

Spelthorne Council at this meeting said that along with trying to work closely with the owners of 15 High Street, they would be sending a engineer to assess the building from a safety aspect.

Cllr Kevin Flurry What we can do together

Stanwell Skills Bus
This has been a great success for the youths in Stanwell. They have made from scratch three troughs of high standard - Well done to all those involved. The troughs will be raffelled at Stanwell Village Hall on Tuesday morning. The troughs come as in the photograph above - fully planted.

The compost and plants were suppied privately by my wife and me, because we were so impressed with the work the youths put in and the quality of the finished product.
We are hoping to continue with the Skills Bus and look forward to seeing what the youths will be making next.




Stanwell Village Hall

This is a very well maintained hall which hosts many events and is a very popular venue. Be sure not to miss the Tuesday morning market.

Stanwell Village Church

I thought that I would post a view of Stanwell Church from a less traditional view. By doing this I hopefully showing how lucky we are in Stanwell to have such a lovely church in such a great setting.

This is pocket park which sits at the back of Hithermoor Stanwell Moor.

This year I am looking for Help in restoring this park to its former glory. Any help gratefully received.

Vermeulens Garden Nursery sits at the entrance to Stanwell Moor. Along with the garden centre there is a cafe offering many different products. Vermeulens offer far more than many other garden centres and is well worth a visit, which once you have done you will want to do again and again.

This is 15 high street Stanwell. It used to be the post office but as you can see it has fallen into a bad state, which was not helped by a fire. This in my view is a blot on what is a lovely village, which is little more than a stones throw from Heathrow Airport.

I am one of three Ward Councillors. If you have any Ward problems please contact me. I am here to help the people of Stanwell North.

Just think what we can do together

Cllr Kevin Flurry What we can do together

In the last two years as your Councillor, I would have to say that I have not done as much as I would have liked, although I have tried.

There are times, as we all know, it does not matter how hard you work you cannot win all the time.

This year, unlike the previous year, as a Councillor I had £750 to use in the community. As in previous years, I choose the project in which I would wish to donate the grant, then I would ask businesses if they would also like to provide financial help.

Last year each councillor had £1000 for use in the community. With help from Stanwell North companies I managed to turn £1000 into £2600 I will be looking to do better this year.

After a meeting I had with BA they informed me that they have four laptops ready for use in Stanwell North - two laptops will soon be placed in Viki's cafe for the use of all.

Father William has asked if we can have a Christmas tree on the green this year with the veiw of having a carol service around the tree. This to me seems a fantastic idea and so lets see if we can make this happen.

COUNTY

We have drains that do not work, pot holes and uneven pavements. Because of the sheer size of this problem I am hoping that the good people of Stanwell will aid me by e-mailing me the locations [Lighting poles have numbers] and letting me know whether it relates to a pot hole, drain, or pavement. I will then pass this information on to County for there attention.

Grass Cutting / Litter Collection

I believe that there has been a great improvement in Stanwell in these areas this year. We are very lucky that we have a very good team going around doing this work in all weather. I would personally like to single out our litter collector - he always has a smile and a cheery good morning.


Armed Forces Day

22/06/09 At 10:30 marked the first of an annual event at the council offices.

Hanging baskets in Stanwell Moor were Paid for by your local businesses.

Flowers around the Stanwell war memorial were supplied by Flower Vision and paid for privately by Cllr Kevin Flurry.
