14.1         I am pleased to confirm that even though Covid-19 is still preventing actual physical events to take place, organisations are finding alternative ways in which to interact virtually, supporting each other in various ways.

14.2         For the future the Raid on Dieppe commemorations are currently going ahead, and I will attend commemorative events to remember the Raid on Dieppe on the 18 and 19 August in France.

 

14.3         I am making plans with the Mayor’s charities for events ahead including film night, a choir evening and an afternoon with Peter James. I’m hoping once these events are advertised that my fellow councillors will be supportive and attend.

 

14.4         I would also like to put on record my thanks to the staff in the Civic Office for their support and actions to enable the office to continue and me to fulfil my role albeit in a very different way at the moment.

 

14.5         I am aware of the recent changes to the make-up of the council and am therefore now going to take an urgent report from the Chief Executive.
