MAY I take this opportunity to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Peaceful New Year, but also to ask you to think about people who are not so fortunate as we are.
During my year of office I am supporting three charities:
n the Rowdy Bunch a youth club for disabled youngsters
n the Breast Cancer Unit at PMH Hospital
n El Hogar De Los Ancianos, an elderly person's home in Ocotal, our twin town in Nicaragua.
As we enter the season of goodwill I call upon your generosity to contribute a donation to the Mayor's Charities.
I know personally from working with these groups that they are truly worthy causes.
Any amount will be received by them with deep gratitude.
The donation can be specifically for one of the charities or divided as requested.
Cheques should be made to Swindon Borough Council and be sent to me at the address below.
All donations will be gratefully acknowledged.
May I thank you in advance for assisting these deserving causes.
Season greetings.
