The Mayor of Axbridge
The Mayor and Deputy Mayor were elected at the annual "Mayor Making" ceremony in the Town Hall on the 10th May 2010. Councillors Jeremy Gall and Baz Hamblin were proposed and seconded by members of the Town Council. At the meeting, the outgoing Mayor Jennifer Trotman made a well-received speech re-capping the year's successes, and the Town Council's thanks go to her for the sterling efforts he put in on behalf of the Town during a hectic and extremely busy year as our Cycling Mayor, promoting the town and raising money as well.
Councillor Gall was duly "robed", and took the official Oath to uphold just about everything for Queen, country, and Axbridge. Click here to see the exact words which were spoken.
Our new Mayor has nominated Weston Hospicecare as this year's Mayor's Charity. This really is a superb organisation which cares in so many ways, and which really is a "local charity", catering for Axbridge people in need. They also have a terrific numbers of ways you can help, which you can see on their website westonhospicecare.org.uk.
