Following the recent flooding on Grace Dieu Road in Whitwick, Cllr Peter Moult and I have been working hard to support local residents with immediate action while also pressing for longer-term solutions.

I'm pleased to confirm that a full road clean of the affected areas has been carried out today by North West Leicestershire District Council, building on an earlier clean completed by a Severn Trent Water road sweeper.

After writing to Severn Trent Water, the Environment Agency and Leicestershire County Council, I’m also glad to say that a meeting has been secured for early in the new year to discuss future mitigation measures. I will continue to keep local residents updated on any progress, as I have been doing throughout.

Leicestershire County Council are also scheduled to empty and cleanse the gully network before the end of next week (12th December).

As always, local residents can contact me with any questions or concerns using the details below:

Following continued action over the past 12 months on the British Coal Staff Superannuation Scheme, over 750 former mineworkers in North West Leicestershire will now see their pensions rise by 40%, thanks to the Labour Government’s transfer of the £2.3bn investment reserve back to scheme members.

That’s an average of £100 per week back into the pockets of those who once powered our nation.

I am so pleased that we have secured this outcome during the budget. This change will make a real difference to the lives of local people and their families. A big thank you must go to the campaigners, constituents and coalfield colleagues who have been engaged in the lobbying efforts to right this injustice.

From Coalville to Measham, Moira, and beyond, our industrial heritage has shaped the local landscape. For generations, our former miners powered this country, and it’s only right that we recognise their sacrifices.

We’re not just providing financial support; we’re also improving healthcare for respiratory illnesses through our Men’s Health Strategy. It recognises the additional care often needed in our former industrial communities, where health inequalities are higher.

I’m proud of our local industrial heritage. It touches nearly every part of North West Leicestershire, and I’m proud that our Labour Government is delivering the support our former mineworkers deserve.
