RESIDENTS had the opportunity to ask councillors about topical issues at a meeting on Monday night.

The annual Droitwich Spa Town Council meeting at the community centre, in Heritage Way, was attended by around 20 residents.

Mayor Don Lawley (Con, Droit.South) chaired the meeting.

Councillors who head the main committees gave brief speeches.

Cllr Harry Hipkiss (Lab, Droit.West) was presented with a silver picture frame for his community work.

He was highly commended this year in the Wychavon Bursary awards.

The floor was then opened for residents to pose questions.

The main subjects discussed were bus passes for the elderly, the Lido Pool, transport and healthcare provision.
