Yes folks the lights are on for the ''Season of Goodwill' in our fair City of Lichfield The children sang well and Santa was welcomed with loud calls of I want Santa. A wonderful sight as the lights were switched on by the by the Mayor and the children who won the competition to join the Mayor. Becky Jordan & Sean Adams.

As a member of the City Council it was my honour to serve as Sheriff in 2000/1 and in 2002/3 as Mayor.

It is a great pleasure to have been part of the Civic life of the City. We hold many Civic events during the year.  Members of the public are always welcome at the Court of Array held each year in the Guildhall before the Bower Procession. When the Bower Queen is crowned at Noon outside the Guildhall. Held on 26th May 2008.

Before that on St Georges Day 23rd April 2008 the St Georges Court is held at noon in the Guildhall, but come early it is a popular event. For more information visit the Lichfield City web page on www.lichfield.gov.uk

It has been decided to withdraw the application for the Darwin Hall owing to the number of objections to the plans.

We hope to proceed with the building of a Community Hall after consultations are complete. We do hope it will progress sooner rather that later.
