Please do email me with any concerns. It’s my aim to reply to emails within 2-3 working days, but if your issue is marked ‘urgent’ in the subject line, I will aim to reply straight away.
Unfortunately, because of the pandemic and restrictions to prevent the spread of coronavirus, I cannot do usual ward door-knocking on a weekly basis and a full ward canvass on a monthly basis. I am providing telephone, Zoom, Teams, and other forms of communication as such.
