It was also useful to see what items are included in other wards, the police one on crime prevention being a prime example of something that would go down well here. Cllr Grayson and myself therefore requested that the same item be scheduled for November in Rishton and we will have five minutes apiece going through the projects that each of us have had the biggest hand in.

There seems to be some resistance to the idea but it struck me as a good way of actually showing people what councillors do for the community.
