I live just over the border into Lower Earley but have three grandsons living in Shinfield. One now goes to Emmbrook School, one is at St. Mary’s Junior. and the youngest at the Infants. All have been very happy and well supported. I am a Foundation Governor at a local primary school.
I am borough councillor for Shinfield South, and am very active on your behalf maintaining my promise to help Shinfield as best I can deal with its burgeoning growth.
I have assisted residents in social housing with chronic leaks and mould issues; responded to calls regarding horrendous flooding; campaigned to keep weekly bins collections; argued against the scrapping of public litter bins; raised awareness of the need for crossings outside schools; and the requirement for a tarmac pavement from Lailey Path to the nursery school; argued about parking charge increases; pressed for money to be spent on the dreadful potholes; and shared the concern over Oakbank School and schooling in general.
