As further information becomes publicly available, it is true, as many feared, the attacker lived in our City and boarded from Peterborough Station. I wish to say little more about this individual and instead focus on the stories of the superhuman actions 1/3

All credit to Katie Berry and everyone who supported and signed the petition. It is naturally a very concerning situation, as risk is being added to an already well-known road of concern.

It was a great pleasure to put forward a motion asking Peterborough City Council to support the Flag of the Fens and its journey to official recognition from the Flag Institute.

Thank you to all Councillors for their support and warmth for the motion and the flag on the night.

International Women's Day

I took a few pictures of my favourite pieces from the Highlight Her exhibition by Kings Cross earlier this week.

I am truly fortunate to be surrounded by so many inspiring, loving, driven and wonderful women 💜

It was a very special Good Neighbours Friendship Tea in Newborough this week. A 100th birthday party for the wonderful Miriam.

Pictures don’t do her sharp and mischievous nature nor her beauty justice. She is truly a bright and warming light in any room.

A privilege to attend the Holocaust Memorial Day Commemoration.

I felt the service struck a wonderful balance. We looked back to remember the past and the many performances and readings from talented young people showed the amount of light we have coming in the future.
