In Karen's own words

I have been a Newham resident for 26 years, and spent 15 years teaching in Plaistow schools and colleges. I am a safe cycling campaigner and have been pushing for a safe diversion to the Greenway, which is currently closed from Upper Road.

Vote Green on May 7th for action on Newham’s housing crisis, and to make our streets clean and safe.
