I’m Ros Hathorn and I’m standing for re-election as county councillor for Histon & Impington and Orchard Park in this year’s local council elections. Polling day is Thursday, 1 May 25.
Since being elected in 2021 I’ve been active and accessible in the community in person and online. I have regularly participated in meetings of Histon & Impington Parish Council and Orchard Park Community Council.
I have listened to my community and acted on its concerns.
On this web-site I’ve summarised, in no particular order, just some of the issues which I’ve helped to address.
There’s also a set of FAQs including information about registering to vote and for a postal vote.
