BRIGG TOWN MAYOR LOOKS BACK ON A YEAR OF ACHIEVEMENTS

Brigg Town Mayor Coun Donald Campbell (pictured) looked back on some memorable community events when he delivered the Town Council's report to members of the public who attended the Annual Town Meeting in the Angel Suite on Monday evening.
He also looked to the future, asking people to join in the litter-picking session to be held on Saturday, April 13.  Those interested should meet at the Bandstand, in the Market Place, at 9am.
Among events mentioned by the Town Mayor were:

• The very well-attended Remembrance Sunday parade and wreath-laying ceremony
• The enjoyable Christmas lights switch-on ceremony, fair and late-night shopping - supported in numbers by Brigg residents
• The official opening of the new Vale Academy by The Princess Royal (Princess Anne).
• The Tree of Light in the town centre
• The completion of the new Holocaust Memorial Sculpture, on the Millennium Green, Elwes Street.

The Town Mayor made reference to thousands of pounds in grants awarded to local organisations by the Town Council.
He also praised the award-winning achievements of Brigg in Bloom and the big contribution made by the town's local handymen in dealing with various issues.
