Pimm’s by the River with Cllr. Lucie Follet Maitland & the Whitchurch Conservation Group

Pimm’s by the River with Cllr. Lucie Follet Maitland & the Whitchurch Conservation Group Thank you to everyone who voted at the recent Borough elections. Turnout was impressively strong, despite the Covid backdrop; thank you for making the effort.

I promise to work hard and meet challenges as they arise, and I look forward to working positively and collaboratively with other Councillors.

Frustratingly, because of the new ward boundary changes, my term is only for 12 months; I do hope you will feel able to vote for me again this time next year.

In the meantime – I would like to say thank you for your support. Please do join me (and the Whitchurch Conservation Group) between 3pm & 5pm at the dog dip on the Fulling Mill footpath for some Pimms while you walk this weekend…the weather looks like it may play ball for once!

Thank you, Lucie
