Mayor's February Update

Mayor's February Update

January was a quieter month for Mayoral engagements, although there is still a lot going on in relation to Town Council meetings, and it looks like it is beginning to get busier. One highlight of January was opening The Range. It’s great to see a new store open in Felixstowe, and positive that the store did not stand empty for long. This end of Felixstowe will surely receive a welcome boost, as Sainsbury’s is soon to open in the premises previously occupied by the Co-Op next to Great Eastern Square.

The Mayor's Winter Message

The Mayor's Winter Message

As I write this, Remembrance Sunday and Armistice Day have just passed, and it was a profound honour to lead Felixstowe in our acts of Remembrance. The turnout at the morning Church Service and the Remembrance Sunday ceremony at the War Memorial seemed larger than ever, and Armistice Day was made all the more poignant by the participation of our local schoolchildren laying “Poppies on the Promenade”. It was a privilege to also pay respects at the War Graves at Felixstowe Cemetery, including a visit to the graves of German service personnel with representatives from our twin town, Wesel. The loss of any life in war is tragic, and as we remember, our thoughts are with those affected by conflict worldwide.

The world of the subconscious, mental, emotional and physical wellbeing is large and can be quite confusing. I’m very grateful for this space to be able to share just a few of the learnings that have had a massive effect on my own life, hopefully in a way that is easy to understand and generated my own healing. My wish is simply that these articles benefit those that read them.
