On Saturday, for World Mental Health Day, I was pleased to join the Basingstoke Samaritans for their 5k dawn walk. We welcomed the sunrise together while walking to save lives and so that no one has to face their darkest hours alone.

On this anniversary of D-Day, we remember the bravery of those who landed on the beaches of Normandy, turning the tide of World War Two. Their courage and sacrifice will never be forgotten. We honour them today and always. #LestWeForget

We were all saddened by the death of Sean Keating, former Mayor and long‑serving councillor. Known for his humour and love of conversation, he built a respected career in the trade union movement and public service. Even after retiring, he and Gwen attended many civic events.
