Phyllis Ballentyne - Liberal Democrat candidate for Chiswick Riverside
Hounslow Liberal Democrats have selected local Phyllis Ballentyne to fight Chiswick Riverside by-election. Phyllis has lived in Chiswick, Homefields Ward for the past 20 years with her family. She was a member of Strand on the Green School PTA, Belmont Aftercare Scheme and Chiswick Community School PTAs, CCS Community Association and Saturday Music School. Phyllis also worked as a volunteer adviser at the local Citizens' Advice Bureau.
Phyllis has recently spent a year training for a nursing Diploma at TVU in Ealing. Placements were at St Mary's Paddington and Chelsea and Westminster NHS Trusts. She also volunteered at the Fischer's Lane retirement home.
Phyllis' special interests on the council would be housing and education, as well as local provision for the elderly.
Cllr Andrew Dakers, Leader of Hounslow Liberal Democrats, said:
"Phyllis will make an excellent councillor for Chiswick Riverside ward. Her community involvement shows how passionate she is about making Chiswick a better place to live. Unlike Conservative councillors, who have recently been noticeable by their absence from Chiswick area planning meetings, I am confident Phyllis would be a reliable representative of local people. Phyllis Ballentyne will add to our principled and effective opposition on the Council and ensure that housing, the environment and transport for the elderly are given due priority."
