Cllr David Martin is among the volunteer snow wardens appointed in our area.

The Liberal Democrats have introduced the pilot scheme to support communities through icy weather. Wardens will be provided with salt and spreaders to treat important routes and pavements in their area.

One of the trial areas will cover the Claverton Down area in Bathwick ward. Another is between the Bathwick Estate and Sydney Buildings.

“People have cleared the snow from outside their homes for decades,” says David Martin, “now the Lib Dems are giving communities some extra support.”
