Parish elections
On the Parish council in Shaw I am (Howard Sykes) pleased to have been returned for East Ward along with my colleague Joe Beeston. The other four seats went to the ‘so called’ Independents.
In Crompton ward in the Parish elections I am very pleased to see the election of Tom Penketh (youngest councillor in the country), Keith Swift, Louie Hamblett and Diane Williamson. The other three seats went to the ‘so called’ Independents.
Thank YOU to all who supported us and our work for Shaw and Crompton – it is appreciated and we will do our very best to continue to fight and deliver for our community.
