It was my pleasure to help kick-start the first day of The White House Bar Holytown Christmas Toy Appeal earlier this afternoon.
Holytown in general and the White House Bar in particular are well known for their generosity and I have no doubt they will step up to the plate as always with this Appeal.
Well done, everybody, for helping to bring joy to as many children as possible in our community again this year! ❤️

As some of you will know, I have been working with Land & Waste and Education & Children’s Services at NLC to support getting the damaged gates reinstated in the fence around the park at Mossend Primary School - the park has been used as an unofficial enclosed dog run for some time.

The Council has since been clear that they will not support a dog park - there is no similar resource across North Lanarkshire where a dog park has been supported by the Council.

Education & Children’s Services who are responsible for the park are considering how the School may use this park again in the future and reserve the right to keep this area clear. The park is the responsibility of NLC and there is concern about the safety of children in the vicinity of dogs. There is also concern about antisocial behaviour around the park area and the impact this is having on neighbouring properties.

The safety of makeshift fencing that has appeared at the site in recent weeks is also a concern.

I understand the gates will be replaced by NLC but will be locked going forward. This area will continue to be monitored by the Council and members of the public will no longer have access.

I understand some dog walkers who use the park will be disappointed by this update but, as a local Councillor, I remain committed to providing updated information, favourable or otherwise.

I’ve been advised by Education & Children’s Services that the replacement gates need to be custom made and will be installed in due course.

It’s sad to think that Polio is still devastating lives across the world. Both my parents were affected by this horrible disease as very young children and grew up with significant disabilities as a result at a time when social inclusion wasn’t what it is now.
My heart goes out to each and every family who continue to be affected.

Today, I’m giving the Roads Department at NLC a huge shout out of thanks for installing the electrical supply for our Christmas Tree in the Holytown Community Garden. This was done very promptly after I contacted them.
This afternoon a Council Officer from Roads confirmed they will supply the Christmas Tree lights as well as consolation for a disappointing result with railing planters earlier this year.
Well done, guys - looking forward to Holytown having a bit of sparkle and Christmas cheer this year! ❤️
Well done to the Holytown Environmental Group for all their hard work in taking this project forward!

It’s been a busy week for supporting Community Group & Parent Council Meetings in the Mossend & Holytown area and tonight it was my pleasure to catch up with members of Holy Family Primary School Parent Council.
Parents & Carers regularly give up their time to organise special events and fundraise for the school and I feel it’s important for me to show my support for all the hard work they do.
Well done, members - you’re all doing a great job!

Tonight members of the Holytown Environmental Group met with representatives from the The White House Bar Holytown, Keir Hardie Sports Centre, Voluntary Action North Lanarkshire and NHS Health Improvement to discuss planning for Christmas events in Holytown.
It’s always exciting to start thinking about how the Groups will get together and provide for the children in our communities and, as always, I’m proud to be part of it all and support the activities of the Group.
The Holytown Environmental Group progressed to the all important business of helping to make Holytown a place to be proud of!
Well done everyone who came along tonight to take part - amazing work!

I’m absolutely horrified to learn of hoax emails reported by the media which were sent to Schools nationally.
The incident was quickly assessed by Police Scotland as malicious and none of the schools in North Lanarkshire Council were evacuated as a consequence.
The safety & wellbeing of our children is our top priority and the Primary Schools in the Mossend & Holytown area have my continued support. I was attending a Parent Council Meeting when I learned of this incident.
As if parents and carers don’t have enough to worry about!

I always look forward to catching up with members of the Holytown Primary School Parent Council as I did earlier this evening and, I have to say, ‘It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas’ as preparations are well underway.
The School Garden area is looking very Autumnal as well.
You’re all doing a great job and it’s a pleasure to attend meetings of the Parent Council!

UPDATE : I visited the Holytown Surgery this afternoon to discuss the defibrillator. Staff advised that new pads for it are currently out of stock but, in the meantime, the defibrillator has been taken off the list as being available for use. The defibrillator was used by the Surgery which is why new pads are now required.
Staff will keep me updated on progress and I’m looking forward to this defibrillator being available in the near future.
It was lovely opportunity to meet the Staff this afternoon and to discuss other issues as well.
