Councillor Anne Lonsdale's personal blog

Welcome to my blog†.



My name is Anne Lonsdale, Teignbridge District Councillor and Kingsteignton Town Councillor. I am a Liberal Democrat Member for Kingsteignton West Ward in South Devon, which comprises the Parishes of Kingsteignton West and Teigngrace.



My committee membership within the District Council includes the Overview & Scrutiny and Development Control Committees. I am also a member of the Licensing Act 2003 Committee and a substitute for the Licensing Sub Committees.



My responsibilities within the Parish Council include Recreation & Footpaths and Community Hall & The Fountain.



The purpose of this site is to try and keep you informed about my role and provide you with information about developments in Teignbridge District Council and our local Ward Kingsteignton West.



I will clarify my responsibilities in future blogs...

Happy New Year

Yet another year begins and I guess it will be what we make it. A visit to the Job Centre was encouraging with plenty of Jobs advertised and it would seem full time jobs. Councillors are doing their best to promote Tourism for their area which will encourage jobs in hotels, local produce used and enhanced trade.

It will be a challenge to retired people like me. Enterprising women of my age group may feel getting the sewing machine out and following the example of our mothers and grandmothers might be something we could do to economise. Especially now as Kingsteigton hold a Craft and Garden Show every year now. Stitching can be relaxing. Knitting was a craft taken up by young girls last year.

Scams
Teignbridge are once again warning against 'Scams', so please be vigilant both telephone
calls and callers at your door.
