Wednesfield North is a great Ward to represent. All three Labour Councillors have done much to make ourselves available to residents. Because all three of us live in the Ward. It also has its advantage because we are meeting people every day.
As well as helping individuals and families, businesses and sporting clubs, we also try to improve the place we live in for all.
Taking a look back over the last few years . Your City Councillors have been able to source extra City Council funding for all these items. All with a view of enhancing our community, supporting leisure facilities, individuals, sporting events, education, and much more.
All three Labour Councillors Rita, Mary and Phil work very much as a team here in Wednesfield North. We are very much pleased that we have been able to deliver this funding. We believe that it has helped our community . It is a mixture of funding for events, and infrastructure.
