Paint the town brown!

Councillors with pots of paint on the waggonway — L-R: Lib Dem Dene Ward Councillors Wendy Taylor and Bob Renton, with local Parliamentary Spokesman Cllr Stephen Psallidas helped to clean up the Coxlodge Waggonway in late September

Liberal Democrat councillors in Dene Ward have spent the day working with residents and Council staff on tidying up the Coxlodge Waggonway.

Work included painting a substantial length of fencing brown, to make it more weatherproof and to cover over graffiti.

Councillor Wendy Taylor said: "It was an enjoyable day in good weather, and I would like to thank the residents who turned out to help us to improve their local environment."

Local Parliamentary Spokesman, Councillor Stephen Psallidas, added: "This is precisely the sort of voluntary action and local involvement that the Lib Dems want to see more of."
