Pitmen supporter and HTFCSA committee member Paul Woodhead is a Cannock Chase District Councillor for Hednesford. You will see him around the ground most match days, usually as Pitman Pete and in the Strikers Bar after the game where you can talk to him about any matters or issues of concern.
In these articles I want to bring the role of the councillor alive to you and ensure I am accountable to you as the elected representative for the ward in which the football club resides. I will highlight some of the things I get involved with and the decisions the council makes on your behalf. I will be available after most home games for a general conversation and we can arrange a private discussion should that be appropriate. Alternatively you can contact me by phone on 07930 120077 or by email paul.woodhead@greenparty.org.uk
As we move in to the New Year plans are being built for a wide range of community led activities and events in Hednesford. We are always looking for people with a little time and bags of ideas to help these plans become reality. The more volunteers who get involved the less work there is for individuals and the greater the benefit to the town which means more events, activities and initiatives we all enjoy.
A number of the key activities are now established in the town annual calendar but will benefit from people getting involved. These include our entry to the Best Kept Village competition, the monthly Artisan Markets, the annual Summer Festival and much, much more organised in the Park, the museum or elsewhere. All of these rely on volunteer time, energy and imagination. In addition to making these events more exciting we are always looking at new ways to organise activities which the community may enjoy whether that is a drive in cinema, music festivals or a town fireworks evening as well as many more ideas.
To do any of these we need people with a little time and whatever your skills whether practical or administrative, in communication or networking, front of house or backstage there are opportunities for everyone, somewhere. If you feel you would like to get involved in something but you are not sure what, where or how please get in touch with me and we can have a chat and what best suits your situation
