♥️ Thank you to the team at Hunslet Community Hub and Library for putting up this wonderful Stourton aerial photo.

Steven Calline, who requested that the photo be installed in the hub, produced the only record of
Stourton life across a 300 page book.

History matters.

🥶 The weather outside may have been frightful, but the door knocking was still delightful!

It was good to be out on the Linden's with Cllr Mohammed Iqbal and Sarata Sawo today.

We had lots of very nice pleasant conversations with local residents despite the cold weather.

Big ladder or small people? This morning I helped put oil on the Cross Flatts park sculpture with Cllr Andrew Scopes and Angela Gabriel, to help protect it from the elements.

📯 When the guns fell silent on this day in 1918, Europe emerged out of its most bloody war in its history.

We remember those who lost their lives, and those who came back forever traumatised in that war, and those that followed.

🗣️ It was good to be out on the Woodviews and Trentham Street with Sarata Sawo today. Despite me still being a little tired from being, we spoke to a good number of residents and picked up some new casework, which I'll now work through.

🔎 Yesterday I joined the Housing Leeds estate inspection of the Midlands and Rochefords in Hunslet.

It was a pretty standard inspection, with some fly tipping, spotting blocked drains, overgrown bushes, damaged guttering and down pipes, issues with bins, and excessive garden waste, etc.

🐭 Following complaints about rats in some of the drain on Hunslet Square, I asked Highways Gullies Team to clear these.
