Lowestoft Town Council

Sometimes we have big household items which we need to replace. Quite often the replacements are second-hand, and households are left with large things which are difficult to get rid of, especially if you don't have access to a van or a trailer or something. And so sometimes they get dumped in back alleys or on the street. Fly-tipping. No one wants that.

Lowestoft Town Council has a remedy. They are funding a trial scheme 'Bulky Waste Free Collection and Disposal' service.

Reported rumours that Triangle Trees were for the chop turn out to be true – sort of.

LO&N published on Friday 11th a story which noted rumours that the four trees in front of the Sails were coming down.

We wrote that clearly this was unlikely, as Lowestoft Town Council (LTC) recognised Climate Emergency and was an Earth Protector.

We had asked LTC what was going on.

Now, we have more facts.

The family home in Lowestoft has always been in St. Margaret’s East Ward, for which I was elected to the Town Council as an independent candidate in May 2019. Being interested in transport matters, I am a member of Railfuture and East Suffolk Travel Association.

To be sustainable, the community of Lowestoft needs jobs and housing. Now is the time to fight for a better future for the town and us all.

 I am keen to bring a greener, sustainable outlook to the Town Council and to Lowestoft. I will work to the best of my ability to represent the town and the ward.

Deputy Mayor

During Lowestoft Town Council’s inception, I was a councillor in the first term. I am really pleased to be back on the Council again so that I can help contribute to positive changes within our community. For me, the best part of being a councillor is interacting with residents and being able to support them with their needs. The sense of fulfilment in having a positive impact on people’s lives cannot be beaten. My vision for Lowestoft is primarily focused around improving the area for future generations to enjoy.

Mayor

I am a Town Councillor for the Pakefield Ward of Lowestoft, where I have lived for the last 40 years.

I have been married to my wife Sue for the last 30 years and have 5 children and 2 step children, all of whom are also happily married. I am the Mayor for the Town Council, as well as Chair of The Friends of the Library in Kessingland (F.O.L.K). I am also the Director of both the Lowestoft Town Football Club and the Lowestoft Town Sports Academy.
