Sonja Crisp

Councillor - Holgate Ward

Personal Details

  • I am 53 yrs old and was born in Grimsby, Lincolnshire, 1 of 10 children of a fisherman and a homemaker. I am married to Ian and have 4 children and 5 grandchildren. We moved to York 15 years ago when Ian was relocated to Nestle Rowntree.
  • My work experience ranges from factory process work, retail, hospitality, leisure, call centre and finally a public service organisation. I worked as a volunteer advisor for the Citizens Advice Bureau for 2 years. My main interests are social housing, homelessness, the environment and street crime.

The campaign

PUTTING HOLGATE RESIDENTS FIRST
  • Providing monthly surgeries by your Labour Councillors in different locations across the Ward.
  • Delivering Holgate Rose to every home on a regular basis telling you what your Labour Councillors have achieved.
  • A commitment to respond to all resident inquiries within 48 hours.
POLICING IN ACOMB
  • Campaigning for the re-opening of the Acomb Police Station to the general public.
  • Campaigning for the neighbourhood Policing Team to be based in Acomb rather than Fulford Road, providing a more efficient and cost effective service.
FOOTPATH IMPROVEMENTS IN ACOMB
Focussing on the needs of Holgate residents generally and older people in particular:
  • By replacing broken and dangerous paving slabs on the approach to Acomb shops
  • Restoring the footpaths damaged by road works for Ftr buses
  • Changing priorities by investing in footpath improvements instead of resurfacing roads in Acomb
SCHOOL SAFETY
  • Following a dangerous accident we have worked to re-establish a school crossing patrol at the Watson street and the Holgate Road junction for the benefit of children at St Paul’s School.
