ON behalf of my colleagues Stephen Jones, Alan Mazey, past and present Rogerstone community councillors and myself, I would like to thank all those people who supported us during the recent election campaign. Your efforts, both in voting for us and canvassing were very much appreciated by all of us.

I feel privileged to have been trusted to assist many people in some small way, with the problems and difficulties which affected their lives.

During my four years as a city councillor, I met folks from all walks of life throughout the city and learnt a great deal that I otherwise would never have known about.

Stephen and I are very sad to go but wish the new councillors well. I hope that they will remember that it is the sometimes seemingly small issues that often become the big events in people’s lives and which affect them the most.

Val Dudley, Delius Close, Rogerstone
