Haslemere Town Mayor

Congratulations to our new Town Mayor Cllr Simon Dear and his Deputy for the coming year, Cllr Jacquie Keen.

Attended Guildford Cathedral with Jacquie Keen for the #ArmedForcesDay service. Wonderful to see cadets, and the armed forces marching, with the drums and brass. A very poignant service with hymns, readings and prayers.

Proud to support our military, their families and friends

Agreed! Very well attended by many influential people, all involved in protecting Haslemere for future generations.

Well done!

On Tuesday I visited @haslemeremuseum. There is always something new to be seen. Interesting meeting, being told about their hopes and aspirations. We are very lucky to have such a legacy in #Haslemere, run by dedicated staff and many, #volunteers. They deserve all our support.

Yesterday outside the Town Hall, I led a memorial service for the #DDay75 landings. The Royal British Legion and the Fire Service supported the event with several retired military members.

Just to get this account up to date, I have been delighted to attend the #Haslemere Classic Car Show @the_HCCS, also @haslemeremuseum to join in the thank you to all the #volunteers. As usual the staff and Trustees worked hard to show their appreciation.

Very honoured to have been elected as Mayor for #Haslemere. I look forward to serving the residents of Haslemere and promoting the town

Having passed over the Mayoralty to Cllr John Robini, it's time for me to pass over this Twitter account as well. Thanks to all for your support and comments over the past year. It has been an honour to serve #Haslemere as @HaslemereMayor.

Having finished my #charity walk this morning, my last duty as @HaslemereMayor is to hand over at @HaslemereTC Full Council meeting tonight. Thank you to all who have supported and helped me during the year. It has been a great honour to serve the people of #Haslemere

Thanks @haslemeremuseum - last day of the walk and last day as @HaslemereMayor. Perfect timing! Thanks to everyone for their support over the last fortnight, it's been great to have your messages

Then I expect to be super healthy having walked 50+ miles in the last two weeks for @haslemeremuseum #charity #fundraiser. Can't say it was brisk as some of the paths are difficult if you are #barefoot! #NationalWalkingMonth #GreensandWay @SurreyHillsAONB. Nearly home!

So sorry I will miss this @emma_darwin but we have a Full Council meeting @HaslemereTC for appointing a new @HaslemereMayor. What a horrid clash of dates.

Off to start again this morning in the knowledge that many people have donated to the @haslemeremuseum #Autism project and that over £2500 has been raised. Many thanks to all. Starting off from close to @DogandPheasant, Brook and hope to be ending in #Haslemere tomorrow midday.

Beautiful day for the continued #GreensandWay walk! Starting off from the White Horse at Hascombe.

On #charity barefoot walk for @haslemeremuseum #Autism project and now leaving Winterfold Wood for @WaverleyBC area. Great to be getting closer to home! With good friend Jaap Van Klinken this morning - thanks for your support Jaap
