A new year and a new promise which I will do my best not to break, and that is I aim to restart doing this blog every month. So a brief review of January (even if mid February already!) …
Quiet first week then a fair few meetings in the second week, the ‘usual suspects’ including Audit & Council. But a bit of variety followed with two briefings which couldn’t have been more different.
The first was on Crimestoppers, which I’ve only just realised how useful it is, being accessible both online or phone and completely anonymous.
The other was about how our officers tackle damp & mould in our council properties. Lots of myths about this problem and quote often tenants can help themselves but as always it’s getting that message across which is the main stumbling block.
And on the last Friday of the month I was privileged 
to attend Holocaust Memorial Day, with truly amazing presentations given by pupils from across schools in Swansea. As long as they remain that passionate I feel reassured that those who suffered because of that atrocity which took place all those years ago will not be forgotten.
