I’m Helen Redfern, one of Sanderstead's three Conservative Councillors. It's been a huge privilege to serve the area I call home. If you’d like me to carry on working for Sanderstead, please consider voting for me. You’ll find my name towards the bottom of the ballot paper.✅ – at Croydon, London

Labour cost Croydon a decade. Westfield stalled. Town centre frozen. I’ve got it moving again. Don’t let them stop it again. Lend your vote to Jason Perry and your local Conservative candidates on 7th May.

Great afternoon at @LegacyYZ cooking with the legend @levirootsmusic and some brilliant young people. 20 years on from Dragons’ Den, Levi is still giving back - sharing skills, building confidence and inspiring the next generation. That’s what it’s all about 👏

Meet 93-year-old Dorothy - she could be forced out of her care home if her Reform-led council closes it. This is what happens when you vote Reform. It’s not a protest. It’s harming real people. Watch and share:

Four years ago, Croydon under Labour was at a low point. Now crime is down, £1.2bn invested, and regeneration is moving from plans to action. This progress belongs to all of us. Croydon is back on track. Let’s keep going.

Who has spotted the new duck house on Sanderstead Pond? It's been beautifully made and decorated, and we hope to see some ducks making their home in it soon. #Sanderstead🦆🦢🪿

Toni Letts served Croydon as a Labour councillor for 36 years. She has always put our community first. Her support means a great deal - because this isn’t about party politics. It’s about Croydon. Lend me your vote on May 7. jasonperry.uk/tonilettsendor…

Never again...
Brick by Brick bankrupted Croydon. £200m tied up. £1.4bn debt. Three bankruptcy notices. Now Labour want to “consider” bringing council-run development back. It’s Brick by Brick 2.0. Croydon must never go back. croydonconservatives.com/bxb… #CroydonLive

Fly-tipping is not a victimless crime. Under my mayoralty, it’s zero tolerance: enforcement, fines, and consequences. Croydon will not put up with it.
A resident in Thornton Heath has been caught & fined £250 after dumping rubbish. Love where you live - if something doesn't fit in your bin, don’t dump it on our streets. Report fly-tipping on Love Clean Streets 📱 #CleanerCroydon

I love this story. Well done those Edinburgh girls for winning the 'cup' and articulating why they deserved an actual 'trophy" like the boys. And kudos to the EPSSA president for listening and resolving the situation so quickly. ⚽️🏆 bbc.co.uk/news/articles/clym… – at Croydon, London

I was fortunate to meet the extraordinary Baroness Newlove, the Victims' Commissioner. From an appalling family tragedy, she became the voice of the victim making sure the criminal justice system sat up and listened. RIP bbc.com/news/articles/c3dn39… – at Croydon, London

It genuinely is an honour to be asked to participate in the Sanderstead Remembrance Service. Great to see so many in attendance. We will remember them.
We were honoured to lay wreaths at the Sanderstead War Memorial at All Saints Church with representatives from Rotary Sanderstead & Selsdon, Sanderstead Residents Association and Croydon police. We will remember them. croydonconservatives.com/new…

Was it ever in doubt?
Delighted (but not surprised) that @CroydonGuardian readers voted Sanderstead the best place in Croydon. We recognise some of the comments🤔 - and yes we were biased! yourlocalguardian.co.uk/news…

I'm devastated for those impacted by the attack at a Manchester synagogue. May the families who have lost loved ones be supported by those inside and outside of their community. What have we come to when Jews don't feel safe in the UK? We are better than this - aren't we? ✡️❤️ – at Croydon, London
