Make The Date For Next Year…..
Proud and honoured to be part of another very successful group of Volunteers who organise The Whittlesey Festival, I am the only current Councillor to sit on their partners committee.
What a fantastic event we had this year, Andy S…. reckoned there was around £4 million worth or classic cars and motorbikes. Pity about the downpour at 15:10….but the rest of the day went very well.
Date for 2024 – Sunday 08th September.

Vandals & Those Who Know Them Are NOT Taking Any Notice
Yes there has been more Vandalsim carried out on The Manor Field ‘Picnic Benches’.
The previous Picnic Benches suffered the same fate.
These we thought being heavy duty recycled plastic would be more robust – not to the ‘Louts’ who will forever having a go at them.
A discussion and decision was made at a recent Council Meeting, that as the Benches are Vandalised, they will be made safe, but the damaged parts removed and not repaired or replaced.
Over a period of time, there will be NO seating left for the Vandals to destroy and they will have achieved what-ever they set out to do.
I as the Ward Councillor have other priorities than raising another £10,000 to keep replacing damaged/vandalised Picnic Benches.
I understand that Cllr Simon Ward has or is looking into replacing them…..
What is/was a wonderful Whittlesey Town Council/Street Pride project is being ruined by our mindless vandals.

All Good Things Take Time….
Concerned resident near Scaldgate Whittlesey, had issues with 3 trees nearby, she contacted me and asked if they could be looked at.
As always – I followed it up with Parks & Open Spaces who are responsible for that area.
I was informed, that it was bird nesting season and no work could be carried out until the end of the season.
The trees are in the conservation area, and therefor need planning permission to be worked on.
Yes today under F/YR23/0804 application to work on 3 trees…..
Like all good things – takes a little time….
Unlike some – I do not sweep concerns and issues under the carpet – hoping they will go away!
