Really good to knock on doors talking to residents, on the whole a nice warm response on a cold morning.

This week, the two child benefit cap has been scrapped - lifting over 5,000 children out of poverty in Ilford South.
This is a clear investment in our children and in our future.
Combined with Best Start Family Hubs and support for working families, this Government is making sure that every child gets the best possible start in life.

Many constituents both in Ilford South and across the country are understandably worried about the meningitis outbreak.
To protect yourself as best as you can, know the symptoms:
• A rash that does not fade when pressed with a glass
• A sudden onset of high fever
• A severe and worsening headache
• A stiff neck
• Vomiting and diarrhoea
• Joint and muscle pain
• A dislike of bright lights
• Very cold hands and feet
• Seizures
• Confusion and delirium
• Extreme sleepiness or difficulty waking
• Drowsiness

It’s that time of the year, fingers crossed the rain ☔️ will stop! And we can get out and tend the garden 🪴
Green garden waste service starts in March and you can pick up spare sacks from your local library for £2 each. They’re the best way to put out garden trimmings.

How can we call this a ceasefire when civilians in Palestine are still being killed daily, starving, and facing a brutal winter amongst the ruins?

4am this morning @khayerc and I joined dedicated @MPSRedbridge officers on a major operation targeting criminals across our borough.
Crime is falling, but we’re determined to make Redbridge safer, and it’s intelligence from our neighbours that helped make these arrests.

📹 November is Islamophobia Awareness Month and yesterday Deputy Mayor, Cllr Joe Hehir visited South Woodford Islamic Centre as part of an open day that was held, welcoming residents from across the Borough.

It was a pleasure to open our first women’s only gym - Serenity in Ilford, this morning.
For many reasons women and girls might want or need their own space and our fantastic gym does that and includes a lounge, showers, changing rooms, studio and lots of exercise equipment !

This morning I visited the @RedbridgeLive contact centre to meet staff & listen into some of the calls they handle.
The team were patient & empathetic to callers and assist hundreds of people each day. We can help by providing accurate information and making reports online too.

The lived experience and challenges of local residents is so powerful, and the driver behind why we build council houses.
Janelle & Berda spoke about what it meant to them and their families to finally have stability in their lives and a place to call home.“We’re so grateful”❤️

Thank you to Ilford Islamic Centre for showing compassion & solidarity with our neighbours at the Shree Sorathia Prajapati Community Centre after the recent fire.

Grateful to have worked with my colleague Cllr Vanisha Solanki and IIC on this neighbourly gesture. 🤝❤️

I’m proud to have helped @redbridgefb get a permanent home.
They’ve done the hard work of creating the perfect space to store and pack parcels (16000 last year!) that are a lifeline to local people.
I know times are tough but if you can, please donate, their work is immense.

Following concerns which have been rightly raised by Cllr @Jcblackman about illegally adapted e-bikes, I recently spoke in my colleague @DawnButlerBrent's debate to highlight how these bikes are now being used by criminals to commit phone thefts across our community. 🚴♂️👇

I’m very proud of our green spaces, and we’re working on the play equipment and toilet facilities to make them even better.
This week I’m delighted that all 9 of our green flag parks have retained that status!
Let’s all do our bit to keep them looking great.
Great news! 🎉 All nine of our Green Flag parks have kept their Green Flag status.

Grateful to the brilliant local people volunteering to improve our parks. Everyone can help by disposing of their rubbish correctly, reporting issues, and by joining in on planting and litter pick days.
We’re also busy renovating park toilets - please treat them with respect.
This week in Redbridge Leader Cllr @KamRai7 visits South Park to see the new toilets as part of our ongoing commitment to investing in our parks & facilities that are important to local people. He also gives a shoutout to the South Park Users Group for looking after the park.
