    Your year-round campaigner for Seacombe Dear Neighbour, Rae Voller My name is Rae Voller and I am your Green Party campaigner for Seacombe. I grew up here and work locally as a community nurse and midwife. I have always loved how friendly our area is. I want to do my bit to help keep Seacombe special and make it an even better place to be. I have been out and about conducting residents’ surveys in the area. These have helped me understand what matters to people. I love hearing feedback from residents about how they too find it a friendly place to live and want to celebrate some of the fantastic places we have here - the local parks, beaches, leisure centre and historic Mersey Ferry. However, those of you I have spoken to have said there is still lots of work that can be done to improve Seacombe. In my regular newsletters I’ll be telling you about some of the things I’ve been doing to act on your concerns. If I haven’t met you yet then I hope to very soon. In the meantime, if there Rae Voller is your Green Party are any issues you would like to raise with me, I’d love to hear from you. campaigner for Seacombe.
