Solihull Borough Councillor - Bickenhill
My top priorities to make the whole of the Bickenhill Ward an even better place to live are; ensuring residents get value for money from your Council Tax, while keeping bills low.

Protecting areas from unwanted development, working to get a better service from the police and making sure our children get the best education they can to help them secure the jobs we are helping to deliver.
