MLC Brand & Marketing Agency Hi, I’m Melanie and I work with businesses and charities that are doing great work, but not getting consistent results from their marketing. What I often see is lots of activity - websites, social media, campaigns - but no clear strategy, so it all feels a bit hit and miss. That’s where I come in. I step into your business as your part-time marketing lead, helping you get clear on your messaging, define the right strategy, and make sure everything is working together properly. Alongside that, I also run MLC, an award-winning brand and marketing agency. So while I lead the strategy, I can bring in my team to support with delivery, from branding and websites to social media content and campaigns. Which means you’re not just getting consultative advice. You’re getting a marketing partner who brings clarity, direction, and the support to make it all happen. If you’re ready for your marketing to be more focused and effective, I’d love to have a chat. Free, friendly and all about you! Get in touch to learn more below 👇 https://www.mlcuk.co.uk

Louise O'Riordan is a non political representative of Dunstable & Leighton Buzzard that carries your voice to politics. Louise O'Riordan Independent candidate for East Ward — community-led, practical, people-first. I’m not party-political. I’m pro-people, pro-community, and pro-getting-things-done. Meet Louise O’Riordan – Dunstable’s Independent Voice. I have created this site for you to get to know me better whilst I am an elected Councillor in East Ward for Dunstable Town Council. I also want to get to know you better and hear about the concerns you have in the Dunstable East ward. I have used my voice in Dunstable since 2016, holding developers to account regarding rogue practices that affect me, my neighbours and many thousands across the country. I continue to represent my family and neighbours of the 109 dwellings on my estate to help them enjoy their homes. I want to put my years of advocacy and experience to good use, further scrutinising decisions made by Central Bedfordshire and Dunstable Town Council to benefit all residents of Dunstable. Louise O’Riordan Dunstable aims for a better, inclusive community. I understand the frustrations that local people have experienced in Dunstable due to the poor decision making of Central Bedfordshire Council, particularly around planning and the strategic plan. I will continue to knock on the door of CBC to ensure our town is the best it can be. I promise to be honest, to listen and to do my best to ensure that you receive the services and quality of life that you deserve. ‘So proud of you running for local councillor. Ever since I have known you, you have fought hard for your community and the people of Dunstable. Being a councillor will elevate that. You will be truly able to bring to front issues that trouble us and resolve them in an open and transparent way - as an independent!’ Jade Corken, Dunstable THE CAMPAIGN KICKS OFF Thursday 6th April 2023 ⚠️ It’s official ⚠️ I’m standing as a candidate in Dunstable East in the upcoming Dunstable Town and Central Bedfordshire Council Elections on Thursday 4th May 2023 . Living in Dunstable Town centre, I’m all too familiar with the problems we face; • Poor Planning Decisions • Traffic and Road Layout Problems • Unaffordable Housing • Lack of Parking & Transport Links • New Developments & Overcrowding • Insufficient Infrastructure (Schools, GP and Doctors Surgeries) • HGVs Driving through Town • Loss of Green & Open Spaces • Lack of Facilities for Young Adults & Children I’m also frustrated by the decisions that are made and planning applications that are pushed through against the wishes of people that live here - especially when most of the decision makers don’t live where the changes are happening. They don’t suffer. We do. So what can we do? We can vote for change on 4th May 2023. The only way anything will change is if we change who makes the decisions. For this reason, I am running as an Independent Candidate for Councillor on the ward I live in. I want to help myself and my neighbours to live in a better version of Dunstable. This town has some fantastic assets and events, let’s make it even better. I promise to be honest, to take a fair and informed view, to represent your voice and to question everything. I don’t know everything but I will find answers and I will help. If it affects you, it affects me and my neighbours. I’d love to get your vote but, even if you don’t vote for me, please vote on 4th May 2023. Your voice matters. Tell me; what do you want to see change?
