Our thoughts are with all the people who have been adversely affected by the Storms these past few weeks.
There has been devastation in many areas that have been flooded and will take many weeks to get back to normal.
As this week is half term we are not meeting for the coffee morning. Will update very soon with a special session next week. Keep you posted

We received more detailed information from Julia

We received more detailed information from Julia
Regan following the talk in January.

Becoming a councillor. -Candidates have to have 10 signatures on their nomination form. -The deposit is £500 and the Electoral Services team have advised that if any election candidate loses their deposit, the money is paid to the government’s Treasury Consolidated Fund. -Advice for people who are interested in becoming a councillor is on https://beacouncillor.co.uk/

There are roles that local residents can apply for, below is information about the Independent Person who advises on complaints against councillors and other standards issues. There are no vacancies at the moment but you can apply to be contacted when needed.
Below is some information on the Panel member roles for school admissions and exclusions appeals that were mentioned in the talk: "Merton Independent Education Appeals Service " runs School Admission Appeal Panels and Exclusion Review Panels for Merton Community Schools: details below. *School Admission Appeals*

Parents can appeal for a place at their preferred School

Most Appeals are held in May/June/July each year, for entry to reception and year 7

Three panel members hear and decide each appeal

No particular experience is required to be on the Panel, but there is a need to attend training before sitting on the panel

You do need to declare if you have connections with any particular school, but that would not stop you hearing the appeals for other schools

Time commitment is very flexible from one afternoon for a primary school to 3 or 4 days for a secondary school’s appeals

If anyone is interested please send details to democratic.services@merton.gov.uk *Exclusion Independent Review Panels*

These meet very infrequently, and there are strict guidelines as to who can be a panel member

They would like to hear from School Governors and Head teachers (also ex Governors and ex head teachers)

It's a fairly common condition that if managed with greater education about the what to eat and regular exercise.

A very insightful coffee morning session this week

A very insightful coffee morning session this week.The coffee morning was very interesting. Julia had prepared a presentation that she has forwarded to me (I can send out if interested - email me sabah@muslimwomenmerton.com)
She explained how to become a councillor and how as members of the public there are roles that can be carried out such as sitting on a scrutiny committee.
Ladies were very interested as Julia gave a clear understanding of how any member of the society can participate in the democratic practices of Merton council.
