Cllr Roy Gerstner – Community Activist

From the early days of the COVID pandemic, through various Government and County Council Funding, a Household Support Fund was made available to those (mainly families) who were in desperate circumstances.

Administered by County Council, referals and applications could be made by many organisations, I am very proud to have been able to help and support this group, and although only a relatively few applications were made by myself – I refered many onto other larger organisations through the district.

I did obtain, 2 brand new fridge-freezers and 3 new washing machines when these were available, (no longer the case)….below some latest statistics…..

Either sign up yourselves or use the link on the Right Side Toolbar.

Jamie Frost, 45, was spotted on a dirt road in Eastrea by one of our off-duty officers.

He then drove on the wrong side of the road and reached speeds of more than 120mph to get away from on-duty officers before eventually being arrested.

Frost, from South Yorkshire, has now been jailed and you can read more about the case over on our website: https://orlo.uk/Zgyt5

I will over the next few days publish here, both the FDC Annual Report and some expanded explanations…..Some may criticize, however there is a lot of good reading and statistics that highlight Council work.
