    We’ve taken firm action on major fly-tipping in Crosby Road, identifying the landowners responsible and ensuring enforcement action was taken. We continue to monitor and report fly-tipping to keep our area clean.

    We work closely with our local Safer Neighbourhood Police Team, holding regular meetings to share information, identify crime hotspots and help improve safety across the area.

    We’re also strengthening our community by reaching out to local and faith groups, encouraging greater cohesion and working together to support residents.

    Your Labour team were out in Beam Ward this Saturday, making the most of the rare sunny weather. We were knocking doors and listening to residents in and around Second Avenue. If we missed you, we’ll have left you a leaflet letting you know how you can contact your Labour Councillors and the Labour Community team if there are any issues you’d like to raise.

    We’re out most weeks across the ward – so do get in touch.

  • Apply for a Postal Vote

    Apply for a Postal Vote

    Labour volunteer teams have been out across the ward extensively over the last few week listening to residents. A number of residents have asked about applying for postal votes for the elections in May.

    Voting by post is the safest and easiest way to make sure your vote counts. The quickest and easiest way setup postal voting is by applying online via the Government’s website here.

    You can also download, print out and fill in a paper postal vote application form. This should then be sent to your local Electoral Registration Office.

    Your Labour Community Team can help with lots of things, but unfortunately we can’t help you complete or return these forms. Do ask a friend or neighbour if you need help.
