Community Worker
Jan Cooper
COMMUNITY WORKER FOR PARKSIDE
I have been working in Houghton Regis for nearly 20 Years. I have a good idea of the issues that the town faces on a daily basis.
1.)Poor Policing
2.)Illegal motorbikes
3.)Traveller Flow
4.)Nuisance and Careless Young People
5.)FlyTipping
Solutions to these issues are difficult and there are many people in the town working to make life better for residents. They are working in many different ways with different approaches.
It is what makes Houghton Regis a unique place to live and work. Not the issues but the people who live and work in and for the unique town that is Houghton Regis.
What approach do I take ?
I WILL LISTEN FIRST -
and then act on what I hear

You have done a wonderful job for the Houghton Regis Leisure Centre Action Group and for the community in general. I can say with absolute conviction that without your knowledge and tireless efforts we would never have been in a position to battle against CBC and succeed. KH
