Steve Galloway with Lynn Jeffries who was a keen supporter of Green Belt conservation.
We were sad to hear of the death of Westfield Ward Councillor Lynn Jeffries over the weekend.
Lynn had been suffering from an illness for some time.
She was elected to represent the ward in May 2011 and joined the Liberal Democrat team 18 months later.
She was a tireless campaigner on behalf of people with disabilities and readily supported local residents in the Westfield area on a range of issues including conservation of the natural environment.
She had recently been involved in a door to door survey of over 3000 homes in the ward taking up dozens of issues with the Council on behalf of respondents.
Our condolences are extended to her friends and family.
