Statement to voters
Hi, I’m Catherine.
Full statement
I have lived in Mirfield for over a decade and run a small business here. I am Chair of Mirfield Community Trust and spend much of my time helping to run Mirfield Community Centre. I am proud that over the last few years we have developed this beautiful building from the fairly run-down state it was in when it was handed over by the Council into a well loved asset for the community. We have also made it a showcase for becoming a green community building – with significant insulation and solar panels we are close to becoming net zero which benefits the environment but has also saved thousands on our energy bills to help make it financially sustainable.
Mirfield is often the forgotten place between Huddersfield and Dewsbury and, if elected, I would work to raise our profile and bring improvements to the ward. We are likely to have a progressive coalition of Greens and others running the council after May and I would work positively with the new executive for the benefit of the Mirfield area.
