Every month I write a report for the “In Touch” magazine that reaches almost all houses in Gipping Valley and a number outside the county division. I hope these have been interesting and I try to make them “jargon free” – no mean task as I have got used to “government speak”.

I also report to the Parish Councils that I attend monthly and as an annual summery.

I will cease to be County Councillor on the 7th May as after 20 years representing you I think my friends and family need a bit of attention before it is too late. I hope to pass the task to Adrienne Marriott.

I will continue to write but as the Mid Suffolk District Councillor for Blakenham.

My past reports are attached.
