Twerton and Whiteway Ward Councillor weekly update - 22.02.2025

Here is this weeks update on what your Councillors Tim Ball and Sarah Moore have actioned in the area.

*    New bins

    We have requested several new bins to be put in locations where litter is a regular problem.

*    Road signs

    We have requested a number of badly damaged and faded road signs be replace.

*    Flytipping and litter

    We have reported a number of flytipping issues and are talking with the B&NES waste and     cleansing team about clearing and preventing the rubbish that is being thrown over the            fencing into Carrs Wood. This is not only unsightly, but also dangerous for dogs and wildlife.

*    Pharmacies

    We have contacted the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPHC) and our local Integrated        Care Board (ICB) about the ongoing issues with the 2 local pharmacies and asked what        can be done to ensure residents have a regular, reliable service.

*    Curo

    We have a monthly meeting with Curo this week, if you have any issues you would like us        to address please do get in touch.

They also completed over 30 pieces of residents personal casework.

Don't forget, next Saturday, 1st March, Tim and Sarah will be at The Spot, Twerton Infant and Nursery school on Poolemead Road between 9.30am and 11.30am for their monthly ward surgery, please do go along and talk with them.
