Monthly Update for November 2025

Over the course of the past month I’ve raised over 80 queries with the authorities on behalf of residents and businesses across the Blackhalls & Hesledens ward. I've also been in direct contact with more than 65 individual residents. Almost all of these queries are personal and/or confidential so for obvious reasons details cannot be disclosed to the public.

In addition, I’ve dealt with a number of general queries raised with me by members of the public. These include issues raised at my twice-monthly ward surgeries, during street walkabouts, at PACT meetings and through other methods including direct contact with me via telephone, email and my social media platforms.

The main issues covered over the past few weeks include parking and access concerns at Crimdon, an update on rumours about the Yohden Care Complex in Blackhall Colliery, works to the Haswell to Hart Walkway at Hesleden, litter-picking sessions with groups of children from St Joseph's RC primary school and speed hump upgrades at Station Road in Blackhall Rocks.

I’ve selected just a few of the articles about these issues for re-posting, just in case you missed them first time around.

Please follow the individual links below for full details, and as ever if you have any comments or queries regarding any local issues please get in touch with me direct and I'll see what I can do to help.
