Schoolchildren win speed limit fight

Schoolchildren in Cookridge, Leeds, have won their fight to get a new 20mph zone introduced in the area around their school.

Pupils from the Holy Name Catholic Primary School took their fight to Leeds City Council with some pupils speaking at a council meeting to ask for help. Now, an executive board has ratified the decision which will bring a lower speed limit in addition to the junior road safety officers which the school already uses to help pupils cross busy roads and advise parents on parking issues.

The council is already intending to cut the speed limit around 16 schools in the city over this year to add to the existing 55 20mph schemes which currently exist near schools and residential areas in Leeds.

James was excellent. He provided clear, precise advice and always outlined my options. He is a real asset to the company, and I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone in a similar situation to mine.

Can not recommend enough. I have used Samantha Robertson Strong for both the purchase and sale of my old house and she was amazing from start to finish. She always went above and beyond and always dealt with things in a speedy and efficient manor whilst always explaining exactly what was happening. Thanks for everything Sam.

Used Winston solicitors for years now and wouldn't go anywhere else. Samantha and the team have been excellent and I'm extremely impressed with the service I've been provided. Would 100% recommend them for property purchases and sales.

Winston Solicitors was recommended to me by a friend, and I now know why. Samira supported me during a difficult time and made everything feel manageable. She’s extremely knowledgeable, efficient, and great to work with. I felt supported throughout the process. I’d happily return if I needed help again and will be recommending Winston Solicitors to others. A fantastic team!
