🗓 Ignite your passion with your vote on the 2nd of May in the upcoming local elections!

📄The beauty of local elections is that they give us a chance to shape our immediate environment. It's the time when we decide who will represent our interests and visions, from our schools and parks to our roads and safety.

🏡 Like a gardener tending to their garden, your vote helps cultivate a community that not only blossoms, but thrives. The decisions you make on this ballot will impact issues that directly affect your day-to-day life. Your voice truly matters and can echo in the halls of our local governmental bodies.

🙌 So, flex your intuition muscles! Step up, cast your vote, and reflect on the shared dreams and values.

📣 Don't stay silent - make your voice heard in the upcoming local elections. And remember, the power of change lies in your hands, or rather, in your vote.

📚 The local candidates, weigh their visions against your own, which is why it is important to talk to all of them and make an informed decision.

📆Mark your calendars for the big day! Join me in creating a brighter future for our town. Because every vote counts, and yours could be the one that tips the scales. Let's stand up for what we believe in and vote!

This is a remarkable piece of history.

This Friday, view the women's suffrage movement through the lens of the Index of Arrested Suffragettes
➡️ https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/secrets-of-the-national-archives-the-index-of-suffragettes-arrested-tickets-602461046207?aff=ebdsoporgprofile

In the early twentieth century, the government struggled to keep up with the Suffragettes' campaigns.

In response, the Home Office created an Index of Arrested Suffragettes to monitor the activities of individuals, record aliases and link convictions.

The Index contains 1333 names; all arrested in the name of Votes for Women and each with their own story.

Join Diverse Histories Specialist, Vicky Iglikowski-Broad for this talk, part of our series, Secrets of The National Archives.

Curious to know the Independent Community Scunty Panel?

The ISP are a dedicate group of individuals who strive to foster police accountability in their community. Their primary responsibility is to question police officers about their interactions with the public when they utilize Stop and Search and Use of Force powers. By doing so, they ensure that the police force is conducting themselves in a professional, ethical, and lawful manner. Their work is incredibly valuable as they help to maintain public trust in the police force and promote transparency in law enforcement. These members are an integral part of the justice system and are committed to making their community a safer and fairer place for everyone.

Street art positively impacts people's mood and brings joy to their lives. However, it is important to distinguish between street art and graffiti. Graffiti is not considered street art because it involves damaging and defacing public property, which is a form of vandalism. Street art, on the other hand, is a form of art that adds beauty and life to public spaces. By preventing graffiti and its destructive effects, we can help to improve the community and the cost of living, especially for those who are most vulnerable. Let's work together to deter graffiti and support the council's efforts to create a better environment for everyone.

Embrace the journey, sometimes it’s the journey that teaches you a lot about your destination.

My journey has always been about finding balance between chaos and order.

Peace is not something you wish for, it is something you make, something you are, something you do and something you give away.
