Meet Allan
Allan lives in the ward and takes an active part supporting ‘Warm Hub’ community groups and tackling residents’ queries and concerns.
Uplands has a long history of Welsh Liberal Democrat representation; many have sat as cabinet members on the council. Allan and Sandra have a strong record of resolving community issues including fly tipping, cleaning our streets and potholes. They liaise regularly with local Police and PCSO’s on a regular basis and work closely with local businesses. In addition, they have played an active part in the development of the Victoria Skate Park and the Victoria Men’s Shed. Both were elected as councillors for the Uplands Ward in 2022.

Over the last 3 years Swansea Council has spent more than £485,000 on agency staff for Social Care, at a time when there are more than 30 vacancies across adult and child social care.
Welsh Labour Minister, Julie James' pact with developers to fix buildings affected by Building Fire Safety concerns has been branded “not worth the paper it is written on” by local campaigners.
Sadly, on 5 April, Swansea Council’s Planning Committee approved a planning application to build 101 homes on part of Olchfa School’s playing fields. This was despite the online petition with just under 300 signatures and nearly 120 individual letters of objection. Significant issues were raised over the safety of school pupils and pedestrians, increased flooding risk, environmental damage, increased traffic in the area, and the impact on local residents living close to the site, as well as the permanent loss of open green space.
Please get in contact if you have any questions for the team or want to raise any issues with them
