As High Sheriff it was a great pleasure to attend the Spanish National Day celebrations in Manchester this evening as guest of the Consul General along with the Lord-Lieutenant, Lord Mayor of Manchester and Mayors of Salford and Tameside. @GMLO_UK
I had the privilege on Thursday to represent the Lord Lieutenant and officially open the Warsaw Calling: 1944 exhibition at the @FusilierMuseum Telling the story of the Polish Community and their fight against fascism and the Nazi’s in World War Two. @GMLO_UK

The King's Award for Voluntary Service is extremely prestigious (equivalent to an MBE for a body of volunteers)
Nominations are now open. Have a look

My third engagement today as High Sheriff took me to Curzon Ashton where the Chelsea Pensioners Outreach roadshow were holding a special drop in session for veterans. What a joy it was - music, chat and camaraderie. They were also highlighting the services and groups available.

Today as High Sheriff I visited a great event run and organised by volunteers. Mottram Show Chair Mike Martin took us round and he is rightly proud of everything the group has achieved. Good to meet up with the Deputy Mayor of Tameside, Jonathan Reynolds MP and Miss Manchester.

My first engagement today as High Sheriff was to open the open day at the Shakespeare garden in Platt Fields, brought back to life by loving volunteers. Three of the Bard’s plays feature Sheriffs so I felt at home. Well worth a visit!
Thank you to @boltoncouncil registrars and Mayor of Bolton, Cllr Mohammed Iqbal for a lovely morning as we welcomed 17 new British citizens at yesterday citizenship ceremony. @GMLO_UK It was privilege to represent the Lord Lieutenant and highlight the importance of civic pride.

Great day at Lancashire Mining Museum at Astley Green. Met so many amazing volunteers who passionately tell the story of mining - steam trains, engines, real stories, art, heritage. No wonder they hold the coveted Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service.

This afternoon as High Sheriff of Greater Manchester I visited Message Trust in Wythenshawe to hear their amazing story. A community hub includes meeting rooms, a fantastic cafe, clothing shop, grocery and much more. It is a really inspiring place .

Great day in Barnsley as APPMG visited a leading example of market-led regeneration.
Markets are town centre anchors and engines for local growth.
Thanks to Barnsley Markets, @JBuckleyLabour, @catecclesstour, @iqbalmohamedMP, @JoPlattLeigh and everyone involved.

Thank you again for a wonderful dinner @ManMetUni celebrating a world class university in our city. And of course the home of the first Manchester recipient of the Tony Warren Bursary. He'd be over the moon.

A day off from Sheriffing but a rehearsal at Guide Bridge Theatre for the Titanic show on 6 June. It is a fundraiser for the theatre so hopefully you might be able to come along. I won’t spoil the ending.
