Local Democracy Week
Thursday 20th October 2005 - As part of Local Democracy Week I was shadowed by two young people today - Jack and Rachel - both pupils at Halewood College where I am also a Governor.
I arranged meetings with various Officers to discuss the Raven Court development, Neighbourhood Management issues and the Government's Green Paper "Youth Matters", all of which gave the young people a good insight into the work and role of a local councillor.
We also spent some time in the Council Chamber discussing the role of the Council and the political make up of Knowsley, all in all a good afternoon and I hope Jack and Rachel found it interesting!!
