This week started with a fantastic visit to the new tech incubator in Alderley Park. Seeing local innovation firsthand reminds me why we need to fight for better digital infrastructure.
On Wednesday, I met with the 'Friends of the Park' group who are rightly concerned about maintenance cuts. I pledged that under my mayoralty, green spaces will be protected.
Key Takeaways
Community First
Local decisions made by local people.
Investment
Securing funding for infrastructure.
The highlight, however, was Friday's canvassing session. Despite the rain, over 50 volunteers turned up. The message on the doorstep is clear: people want change, and they want competence.
