I had a great first meeting with my new ‘Mentee’ today, through the @districtcouncil development programme. One of the most rewarding parts of my job is (hopefully) being helpful to the future of local government stars! 🌟

Great to attend this important event and input into a very important topic, highlighting the challenges for #breckland residents. Look forward to seeing the results 👍
Thank you to @CommonsLUHC, Clive Betts MP & @NadiaWhittomeMP for visiting @OxfordCity and meeting with #councils to hear about the work they are doing to support residents with disabilities to have #accessiblehousing and discuss the reforms that are so desperately needed.

Great to catch up (as always) @NatJode and hear about the amazing work being done through our partnership in #breckland
Essential reading for local gov. Thankfully, I’ve spent the morning discussing cultural placemaking & creative health with officers @BreckCouncil who really understand & value the role of cultural in their district and who contribute time & money to maintain this important offer!

A great initiative by @BreckCouncil, training wellbeing champions and working towards Mindful towns and villages. Perhaps, ultimately, we can spread this across the entire county? #MindfulNorfolk
Well done to our 13 new wellbeing champions for Mattishall Attendees completed various courses including Wellbeing/Community Champions and Managing Mental Health in Workplace. If you want to know more about how YOUR village could be more Mindful visit https://t.co/wVdWYuuJya

I’m so proud of this award. To be recognised as making an ‘outstanding contribution’ to the mental health of residents by @NorfolkMind is amazing. But none of this happens without the 300+ volunteer’s who gave up their time to be trained up as Community Champions. Thank you 👏
Following #WorldMentalHealthDay on Tuesday, Breckland Council is incredibly proud to announce that we have been recognised for our 'Outstanding Contribution to Norfolk & Waveney Mind'. Thank you Norfolk & Waveney Mind for your partnership as we build a more mindful Breckland.

Really proud of how we invest in this service to look after dogs 🐕 in our district. This award is an important, independent, verification of our continued commitment to keeping animals safe 👍
