Peterborough City Council, The Mayor and Civic Office News

The Mayor and Civic Office

The Mayor, Consort, Deputy Mayor and Deputy Mayoress have been attending a variety of events over the last month and held events supporting the Mayor’s charities.

The Mayor and Consort received a warm welcome at a number of sheltered housing units run by Cross Keys Homes and will continue to visit all the units during the current civic year.

To help students at the King’s School when attending job interviews, the Mayor and Consort assisted at mock interviews held at Fisherprint. The students thoroughly enjoyed the visit and found it very informative.

During Local Democracy Week two students from the Nene Park Academy shadowed the Mayor for a few hours and observed her meeting with officers and had the opportunity for a question and answer session over lunch. They also looked around the Town Hall and then observed a citizenship ceremony which they thoroughly enjoyed.

The Deputy Mayor and Mayoress attended civic services around the area and enjoyed attending a number of concerts and events on behalf of the Mayor. The Deputy Mayor joined the Mayor, civic party and charity committee for the Perkins Great Eastern fun run. Even though the group came last they thoroughly enjoyed the experience and at the same time raised money for the Mayor’s charities.

Other events attended this month include The Peterborough School speech day, a family fun day at Central Park, the launch of the Willow Festival, the graduation ceremony for students from University Centre Peterborough, the opening of the new Morrison’s in Stanground, the inauguration of the Ghana Association in Peterborough and the celebration of the Festival of Navrati where the Mayor and Deputy Mayor dressed in a saris which was much appreciated by everyone at the event.
