Roy Litherland - your local community campaigner

Your local Labour Party team member, Roy Litherland has, for several years, been at the forefront of local efforts to improve the area in and around the Moss Bank estate. Among the numerous successes he has been involved in are:

• £32,000 raised to provide a skateboard ramp in a local park
• Fundraising to purchase changing rooms at a local recreation facility
• Creation of the "Dream Team" scheme for local young people
• Setting up, along with others, "Activate", an effective support group for young people

Roy has campaigned effectively on many issues on the local estate and has been instrumental in building up a coalition of (among others) local campaigners, council officials, Helena Housing officials, local police in order to identify and deal with problems of anti-social behavious, environmental health, and funding for local facilities, etc.

Roy is now asking residents all over Moss Bank, Haresfinch and Laffak to get in touch with him so he can help you out with any issues you may have over local issues and the shoddy way your Lib Dem councillors are ignoring your problems. Please get in touch with Roy personally by emailing him at roy.litherland@merseymail.com.

Carr Mill Dam

Community champion Roy Litherland has received many messages of support from local residents following his ongoing battle with the Lib Dem led council regarding fly tipping at Carr Mill Dam. Roy said:

Carr Mill Dam is a jewel in the crown of our area and we should be protecting it for future generations, not encouraging people to dump rubbish there.

One local resident said:

Good on you Roy. It comes to something when residents are left to try and clear hazardous mess from well used public beuty spots.
