LOVE OF MUSIC & FILM NEVER DIES!!

Hi Everyone! As you can probably tell things are changing. Walking Contradiction is embracing our past but also the future! From a love of film and music. I used to film live bands and musicians throughout the Southwest for years. I’ve heard a lot of talk recently about Culture bids, but the live music scene has taken a nose dive. Time for change! Let’s show them how it’s done! To find out more email: [email protected]

YOU’D THINK THIS WAS A JOKE!!

Hello everyone, I just got sent this by a friend. I have no words to describe the anger I feel. Considering I am disabled and have been from birth, and have been questioned so many times. You realise these are the type of people who get to make decisions on our behalf!! Jacqui

LET’S WORK TOGETHER FOR THE COMMUNITY!!

Plymouth Weather & Flooding Update,
Let Us Keep Our Community Safe.

With the dangerous weather hitting Plymouth again, many of us are seeing the same familiar issues: blocked drains, flooding, and dangerous road conditions.
Floodwater is not just an inconvenience, it is a real safety risk. Driving through flooded streets can damage cars, bikes and motorcycles, and with the number of potholes across our area, the danger increases even more.
As residents, we are expected to keep our cars roadworthy, pass MOTs, and pay for repairs, yet we are still navigating roads that have not been fixed with for years.

This situation is not new. It happens every year, and it keeps getting kicked down the road instead of being properly addressed.

I want to make sure our concerns as residents are heard and acted on.
If you see flooding, blocked drains, or road damage in Stoke Ward or the surrounding areas, please get in touch.
📧 Send photos and details to:
👉 [email protected]
I will follow it up and push for the action our community deserves.

Let us work together for a safer, better, and more resilient Stoke. 💜 Walking Contradiction

I WANT TO DO MORE FOR MY COMMUNITY!!

Hello, I am Jacqui, and I am proud to represent Stoke as an independent candidate in May 2026.
I have lived in Stoke for over 20 years, and it is more than just where I live, it is my community, my neighbours, and my home.
Many of you may already know me through my work with Walking Contraction, where I promote inclusion, disability awareness, and positive change across Plymouth as a disabled person.
I have also spent years working locally in Stoke and Devonport, helping to organise community events when I ran my first multimedia business, Skymind Studios, from running live sound and booking acts for the Stoke Village Fun Day to supporting The Friends of Devonport Park events just down the road.
Through all of this, I have seen how powerful it is when people come together when creativity, connection, and community spirit meet.

Why I am Representing Stoke Ward

I am representing Stoke because I want to make sure every voice is heard, especially those who feel left out or overlooked.
For me, being a councillor is not about politics, it is about people. It is about working together, listening to what matters most, and getting things done for our community.

My Priorities for Stoke Ward
• Inclusion for All – Making sure everyone feels welcome and supported in our community.
• Community Connection – Strengthening local events and spaces that bring people together.
• Listening & Acting – Being visible, approachable, and active — not just at election time.
• Accessibility & Opportunity – Working with local groups and businesses to remove barriers and create real chances for people to thrive.
A Voice for Everyone
Living with a disability has taught me the importance of empathy, equality, and access.
I know that even slight changes can make a substantial difference, and that is exactly what I want to deliver for Stoke.

Let Us Build a Better Stoke Together

If you want a councillor who is here for you, and here for Stoke, I would love to hear your thoughts, ideas, and concerns.
Together, we can make our community stronger, fairer, and more inclusive.

OUT & ABOUT!!

Hi Everyone! I ventured out to at the The Life Centre as part of the Halloween weekend. It was good fun, fantastic traders, cosplayers and props. But they did one thing that I felt was a really nice touch. They had a concession carers ticket for people receiving personal independence payment. That is the first time ever at a comic convention in Plymouth. The disabled access and staff were fantastic, just makes me want to do more. Thank you.
