COUNCILLORS will start holding a monthly street surgery in Peasedown St John.

The first session will be on Wednesday, October 15.

During each month, over the next year, councillors Gavin Heathcote and Karen Walker (Independents) will be visiting every street in the village with the aim of meeting residents, listening to concerns and to find out about what issues matter to local people.

The upcoming street surgery will take place at Frederick Avenue, Albert Avenue, St John’s Close and Sunnyside View from 4pm to 5pm.

Cllr Heathcote and Cllr Walker said: “We’re keen to visit and meet with as many residents as possible over the next year. These monthly street surgeries will enable us to find out more about what priorities matter to local people.”
