I would be extremely grateful if you would allow me to use the Letter Page of the Halesowen News to offer my sincere apologies to a number of residents in Blackheath.

It is no secret that I have M.S. (Multiple Sclerosis) and walking difficulties but this means that I have to rely on others to deliver my literature to residents.

Unfortunately, a batch of letters were recently ‘mislaid’ by the distributors – they must have been found by someone who ‘helpfully’ posted them, although they were unstamped.

I am so sorry for the inconvenience that this has caused and will gladly refund the postal charges incurred by this unintentional mishap.

Cllr.Mary Docker Blackheath Ward
