Meeting residents

Councillor Prince has dealt with a range of issues and concerns raised by local residents.

One resident, who met Councillor Prince when he was in The Mall this year, was extremely pleased she took the time to go and speak to him.

Doris Collier, 80, from Wanstead had just received a huge bill for some repairs on her privately-owned flat and was having problems finding the money.

Doris said, "When the company told me how much the repairs to my flat would cost I felt quite desperate.

"I saw Councillor Prince in Ilford and noticed that he was inviting opinions from local people so I thought here's an opportunity to see if anyone from the Council could help with my predicament."

She added, "He took an interest in what I was saying, took my details and I got a letter a few days later. Someone then came and visited my home and filled out some forms for me to help me claim some benefits to help pay for the repairs.

It was dealt with so quickly and I'm now waiting to hear if I get some money. I just felt like at least someone was listening to me and trying on my behalf. I would, without question, tell anyone who has a problem to go and speak Councillor Prince as you never know what help you might get.
