This one sounds promising, even if only because she didn't Kathryn me. (Sorry I will stop posting soon. I've just run out of work so I'm killing time!)
Dear Kat,
Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I’m referring this to the District Head for Sparkbrook who is well appraised on issues around Calthorpe Park and the courts.
I’m really interested to hear about the Bike Polo and regret that I wasn’t aware of it. It’s exactly the kind of activity we are committed to seeing being developed and encouraged in the Parks. Also, and against the backdrop of Birmingham’s successful Cycle City Ambition funding from government, there is all the more argument for us to back your activity in particular. From community safety and health and wellbeing perspectives there is also really good justification for us financing this.
If you leave it with me I will investigate what can be done to improve the lighting which exists and also get hold of a proper briefing about the use of the area. I should be more aware of it than I am.
In the interests of follow-up, could I ask that you send me a reminder email sometime in the next week should you not have heard back from me before then.
Kindest regards
Councillor Victoria Quinn
