Local Washington South campaigner Peter Noble has stood up on behalf of the local residents of Ayton by contacting the Holiday Inn owners CEO, discussing the anti-social behaviour that residents have experienced.
Speaking Peter said:
"Back in February this year I was in conversation with the CEO of the hotel group that owns the Holiday Inn Washington, explaining the issues of anti-social behaviour that residents living closest to the hotel have experienced by some hotel guests. He promised to have the broken/ largely missing fence replaced within 6 months.
"It's great to see he was true to his word, with the fence replacement in progress today.
"Over the last 2 years, Sunderland City Council have spent over £200k with the hotel including housing drug addicts and sex offenders. Washington South Conservatives Peter Noble and Cllr Paul Donaghy campaigned to bring an end to housing those that were causing chaos in our community. Residents living alongside the hotel had been subject to horrendous anti-social behaviour almost daily. The wider community saw discarded needles in our park, fights, indecent exposure and sex offenders preying on children leaving a local school."
