Leading up to Election time

With Senedd elections on the horizon all parties have been campaigning during April, Covid restrictions permitting.  But of course council business still goes on.

As it happens I personally didn’t have that many of my regular committee meetings, but did attend a useful webinar looking at ways of encouraging everyone to ‘have the jab’.  It took a particular look at countering some of the scare stories about side effects. 

Of course it’s totally understandable that there have been concerns raised and that these shouldn’t just be dismissed out of hand.  Fortunately there is plenty of data around to show that it’s far more likely a person will get Covid if they don’t have the vaccine, than getting a blood clot if they do.

And at long last I have been able to get going again on litter picking by restarting our Friends of group’s monthly session at the pond, Mayhill.  And from I’ve got quite a long list, provided by feedback from residents, of spots in Townhill which will certainly keep me busy in the coming months!
