Welcome to my website

Hi there- a very warm welcome to my web site. My name is Councillor John Edwards and I am an elected member of Sandwell Council here in the West Midlands. This site is designed to give you helpful news about some of the key isues that are happening both across Sandwell and here in my local area, Greets Green and Lyng.

Please contact me at any time if you need to. I run regular advice surgeries where you can  talk to me on a one-to-one basis. And I'm very happy to do home visits for people who are less mobile.

I hope you find the web site useful. All best wishes.
