15 MEDIA RELEASE FROM WIRRAL COUNCIL 12th February 2016 All outstanding faults to be repaired by late April Additional teams have been assigned to repair street lights Council seeks long-term solution to street lighting issues Council stepping up street light repairs Wirral Council has announced immediate plans to step up efforts to tackle street lighting repairs and has put in place a program of repair that will see all defective lights across the borough fixed by the end of April. Cllr Stuart Whittingham, Cabinet Member for Transport and Technology Infrastructure, said: Sadly, this year we ve seen increased levels of vandalism and unreported collision damage, which has contributed to a higher than normal number of outstanding faults. We have not been able to respond to this increase as well as I would like, so we are taking special action to deal with the backlog. I d like to apologise to residents for not responding sooner to their concerns. In our recent Residents Survey, a high proportion of respondents told us that they wanted the council to prioritise improvements to our roads and highways, the cleanliness of our streets and pavements and to help the police and others tackle anti-social behaviour. This special street light repair plan shows that we are listening to them and addressing their concerns. The measures we are taking means all outstanding repairs will be completed by the end of April. Cllr Whittingham added that the situation had been made more frustrating for residents because those who reported a light fault were not kept updated as to the progress of their report. He said: This is an important issue for us and we have put in place additional support to speed up replies to residents. I would like to thank people for their patience; the safety of the public remains our priority. Michelle Gray Constituency Engagement Officer (Wallasey) Wirral Council Tel:

21 New café opens in Wirral to support people dealing with dementia Cafe Connect opens in Heswall to support people dealing with dementia. Every Thursday 2pm to 4pm. Cafe Connect in Heswall aims to provide a welcoming, friendly and informal environment for carers and patients A new café has opened in Wirral to support people dealing with dementia. Café Connect is the first dementia Friendly café to open in Heswall. The café opened on November 5 and aims to provide a welcoming, friendly and informal environment for carers and those they are caring for, with dedicated listeners, refreshments and advice. Members of the Heswall parish teamed up with the Methodist and Catholic Churches along with Mid Wirral Rotary Club to develop a team of over 40 volunteers which means that the café can run on a weekly basis. We started organising the project in April, so it has been ongoing. According to Alzheimers UK there are currently 850,000 people with Dementia in the UK and by 2025 this will be 1m people living with the illness. Jacky said: It s for the families who have to deal with dementia,- for them to have a nice time together. The people that come to the café are so positive and all the volunteers are so welcoming. Before the opening training volunteers received training from the Alzheimers society.jacky said: We must have trained about 80 people. Not all have joined the café but it has helped with awareness in the community. Café Connect will run each Thursday between 2pm and 4pm and a specialist nurse will call in once a month to sit and talk with the community group and answer any questions.
