REDDITCH MP Rachel Maclean has set out her priorities for the year ahead.
These include:
Securing the return of the Garden Suite to the Alex
Continuing the fight to return maternity and children’s services to the Alex
Ensure the Acute Trust delivers the promised investment in the Alex
Support Redditch’s recovery from the pandemic
Deliver Town Deal projects to unlock Redditch’s full potential
Continue to push for cleaner, greener buses in Redditch
Back policies to Level Up Redditch
Continue to support Net Zero and policies to tackle climate change
Ensure schools in Redditch continue to receive more funding
She said: “I believe we should be more optimistic about the year ahead, especially as we seek to deliver ambitious Town Deal projects – helping us to truly unlock Redditch’s full potential.
“We have already made progress on the pledges I made to you.
“Redditch has received £16.6million in Town Deal funding from the Government, the Borough Council has been awarded funding to tackle climate change and install EV chargers, schools are receiving more funding and the County Council has submitted a bid to introduce zero emission buses in Redditch.
“There is much more to do, especially in the fight to return the Garden Suite to the Alex and to ensure the Acute Trust finally gets on and delivers the multi-million pound investment the Alex has been promised.
“I will redouble my efforts to deliver on the promises I made to you and I’ll leave no stone unturned in doing so.”
