Very active citizen in Evere, I am a regular of many events organized within our
municipality. For me, it is fundamental that Municipal Councilors invest in the
life of the municipality and make themselves accessible to their fellow citizens.
Not just a few months before the elections, but well throughout the legislature!
I present here some activities that are particularly close to my heart, among many others!
Annual Greetings
When I ran for the 2012 municipal elections, I was frequently told that "politics" were
only heard when you had to be elected. I then promised those who trusted me that it would
not be my case.
In addition to my almost constant presence in the activities of the town, I present my wishes
every year to all Everois. On the back of my greeting card is a series of useful phone numbers
including my private number. In this way, each year, everyone has my contact information to
join me if he considers it useful.
Distributing my card largely personally, I walk all the neighborhoods of the town, which allows
me to stay abreast of everything that happens and meet residents of all neighborhoods.
Wedding Anniversary Ceremony of our Elders
I am a regular at the Wedding Anniversary Ceremony of our Elders, celebrated at the Commune. Contrary to what some
people think, this activity is not part of my mandates, I participate in the Ceremony by pure
personal initiative.
Our municipality does not have the means of expensive celebrations. I therefore find that
as a Municipal Councilor, I can dedicate part of my Saturday morning to accompany the Alderman,
and thus contribute without cost to anyone in the seal of the event.
Whether the Elders are accompanied or not by their family, such a presence is a pleasure.
And for me, it is each time beautiful meetings with the evocation of beautiful family
memories.
SEL Evere
SEL is the Local Exchange System. A SEL is a group of people making resources available
to each other, according to a unit of exchange specific to each group. Evere has its own
SEL system, SEL Evere, of which I have been a member for several years.
The SEL Evere meetings are typically held on the 1st Saturday of the month at 10am at the Evere
Shopping Lunch Garden. If you want to meet us, without commitment of any kind, you just have
to come, even without announcing you, you are welcome!
Sustainable Neighborhoods
The Sustainable Neighborhoods is a regional initiative aimed at supporting and promoting
sustainable community-based citizen initiatives at the neighborhood level.
I participate in one of these Sustainable Neighborhoods. Currently, we have
hens, bees and birds. We also have a vegetable garden. We are settled, with
the agreement of the owner, on one of the three plots of building land of an
old construction site located in Chaussée de Louvain near Paduwa. Do not
hesitate to come to us to visit, you are welcome.
District Council
The District Council of Bas Evere is currently made up of ten volunteer citizens anxious
to make the link between the inhabitants of the lower Evere neighborhoods and the various
services of the municipality. I am a member, with a double hat of resident and Municipal
Councilor.
The "Bas Evere" is bounded by Chaussée de Haecht (included) to the south and the Moeraske
to the north. If you live in this area and want to join us, do not hesitate to contact me.
If you live in another area of Evere, I will gladly inform you about the Neighborhood Council
to which you can turn.
