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.

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.

Enjoyed my first LGA conference over the weekend
Thought-provoking & fun (the giggles were a very real thing, mixed in with complex topics & discussions).
Very interesting to hear experiences from other Councillors and Councils across the country
