WE WOULD like to thank the residents of Croesyceiliog North and South for returning Labour councillors on May 3. During the campaign we knocked on every door and, while some people were out, we spoke to many residents and discussed the issues that concerned them. We will work with all residents and local organisations to improve services for Croesyceiliog and Torfaen. It is cynically said by some that “we only see you at elections.” This has not been the case in Croesyceiliog and we will continue to hold monthly surgeries where no appointment is necessary. We are also available on email and telephone to arrange out-of-surgery appointments for those unable to attend our surgeries. Further details can be found on www.croesylabour.com.

We would also like to thank former councillors Marlene Thomas and Sarah Richards for their dedication and long service in Croesyceiliog.

Councillors Cynthia Beynon, Richard Clark, and Veronica Crick
