It’s a great pleasure and privilege to represent our town as Mayor, this year I have travelled to various parts of the North East to attend a wide variety of events. I have thoroughly enjoyed it all.
I would like to thank my wife and consort Cllr Rachael Bell for her continued support, I would also like to thank my fellow councillors, Civic Hall manager and Shildon Town Council staff for their support.
My biggest thanks goes to the support and generosity I have received in helping me raise money for the local causes I intend on donating the money to.
I would like to wish them, along with the residents of Shildon a Merry Christmas and a happy new year. May 2026 be a healthy and prosperous year for us all.
