My name is Matt Jones and I'm your Labour candidate in the upcoming Bentley Ward by-election on August 21st.

Full statement

🌹

I'm a local lad, who lives and works in Bentley. My dad and his brothers grew up here and went to school in Toll Bar.🏫

If elected, I promise to work hard for you and your family and commit to the following:

✅ FRIENDS OF BENTLEY PARK: establish a community-led organisation to protect and improve our park and pavilion;

✅ CLEANER STREETS: increase litter picking patrols and crackdown on fly-tipping across our ward;

✅ ACCESS TO CASH: re-petition the Post Office to open a banking hub and work with LINK to install a 24/7 cash machine for residents in Toll Bar;

✅ SAFER ROADS: tackle unsafe parking in on Bentley High Street and install a speed camera in Arksey to combat speeding;

✅ MINEWORKERS MEMORIAL: work with the Council and local residents to commission and build a monument celebrating our mining heritage.

If you care about our community and want a councillor who is dedicated to improving the area, vote for me on August 21st. 🗳️

I won't let you down. 👍🏻
