Police & Crime Commissioners set up BlueLight Commercial to do this four years ago. Savings are already being put back into policing. The Labour Party are out of date. Unfunded proposals which tell Chief Constables how to police their local areas aren’t the answer. Conservative PCCs
Extremely sad news. I recall speaking several times to Lord Field about Birches Head Academy (part of the Frank Field Academy Trust) and his vision for our city’s young people.
Easy to talk to, interesting to listen to, and yes, admired for his commitment for a better future.
We are inviting officers and councillors with portfolios in Planning to join us for a free webinar with Department for Science, Innovation and Technology on the benefits of digital connectivity and rolling out digital infrastructure.

🌳 Yesterday’s walk around #Berryhill Fields - we always find something new & the views across #StokeonTrent are amazing.
Rounding off an average walking week - 35km but no running. Must try harder!

Yesterday, Cllr Abi Brown OBE gave evidence to the Levelling Up, Housing and Communities Committee's inquiry on Oflog.
We're keen that Oflog succeeds in delivering real benefits to the local government sector and the wider public.

This time seven years ago my team at The Sentinel and SoTLive was doing a bit of placemaking in support of Stoke-on-Trent making the final 5 in the City of Culture bidding process. Great team. Just one of many examples of championing our home. #lovewhereyoulive
⛰️ Climbed my first very big hill today, Shining Tor the highest hill in #Cheshire - amazing views across the #PeakDistrict . Grateful to live so close… now where next?
🥾 Easily a 50km+ walking week (with a smidge of running too), lovely way to finish #Easter
