IT’S only been three weeks since I was elected town mayor but it already seems an age ago.

The mayoress and I have represented the town at the mayor makings for Cheshire East, Congleton, Sandbach and Middlewich, supported the Knutsford Lions, Rotary and Inner Wheel at their charter dinners and I’ve attended and judged the stalls at the Lions’ annual street fayre in King Street. All volunteers doing good deeds for our fellow Knutsfordians.

I’ve selected one charity (Knutsford GROW) and one good cause (St John’s Wood Lunch Club) to support and raise funds for in my mayoral year and have just published the outline details of the fundraising events for the year.

If you want to be first to hear more and snap up tickets (or enter the competitive events) please contact Lisa my PA on lisa.benskin@knutsfordtowncouncil.gov.uk to be added to the e-flyer list, follow me on Twitter or give Lisa a ring on 01565-653929.

Similarly, if you are hosting an event and would like my support, please see the council’s website or contact Lisa.

Finally, do please give me a wave on Civic Sunday, June 29 if you’re in town.
