Last week it was a pleasure to meet Sally Ellison of Worcester Community Action (WCA) to see the computer she bought from my councillor good causes discretionary budget. WCA do an amazing job connecting volunteers with local charities that need help. Sally is one of those often unsung heros.

For the first time ever I visited Worcester Crown Court in a visit organised by Ian Smith (High Sheriff) and Ian Care. A great opportunity for local schools to see what really happens in court. Sincere thanks to James Burbidge KC for spending time with local schools.

Today was Holocaust Memorial Day. The theme was 'bridging generations'. We heard from the son of his father's harrowing escape aged 8 from Vienna on the Kindertransport train. Rev Tony Rindl implored us to remember and not repeat the horrors of our not so distant past.

Great to be invited to Cherry Orchard primary school to take part in morning assembly to talk about what politicians do. Next week school council will be involved in a ballot to decide if the following Friday will be either a non uniform day or they get an extra 15mins break. Love it!

Moving service at Worcester Cathedral this morning. Extremely poignant moment occurred where three faithleaders came together literally lighting a candle at the same time one hand on top of another. Special mention too, for The Right Reverend Martin Gorick, Acting Bishop of Worcester's timely sermon

The weekend's here, there's sun in the forecast...it must be time for a wander 🌞 If you're out and about, keep your eyes and ears open for our smallest birds...goldcrests! Find out more about these tiny bundles of joy in this month's seasonal blog 👇 www.worcswildlifetrust.co.uk/blog/seasona...
A goldcrest is perched on dead vegetation and there words and arrows pointing to different features - a bright crest, grooved feet and the fact that it only weighs 5-6g

Had the opportunity to visit Wildgoose Rural Training in Hallow to see all the fantastic work they do supporting people with learning difficulties. Jim Hiddersley CEO summed it up well by saying without this facility many of the people they help would be stuck inside and given a colouring book.

Did you know that Worcestershire County Council has a leading role in promoting public health? Should be common sense that prevention is better than cure. Know anyone that would benefit from these classes?
