Reflecting on last week?s sad events

vigil service

Tomorrow morning it will be a week since we woke to the dreadful news of disturbing incidents which we now know led to the deaths of three people and another three injured in hospital. It was a devastating week none of us will forget and my thoughts and prayers are with the families and friends of Ian Coates, Barnaby Webber and Grace O?Malley-Kumar who face a life ahead of them tragically without their loved ones.

Police have charged a man in connection with the incidents. We must let the judicial process take its course and while it does, listen to and act on the words of the families, who urged us all not to have hate in our hearts. Overwhelmingly, Nottingham showed its true colours last week and stood together as one city in love and peace, against hatred and violence. I have been touched but not surprised by the outpouring of love and solidarity ? it?s who we are and always will be in Nottingham.

The Book of Condolence will remain open at the Council House for the rest of the week for people to continue to pay their respects. Support services for anyone traumatised by last week?s events are available through www.nottsvictimcare.org.uk [ [link removed] ]

I offer my congratulations to a number of local people who have been named in the King?s Birthday Honours list. The person most people will be familiar with is Vicky McClure, the local actor who is best known for her role in the popular TV drama Line of Duty, as well as heading the TV show Our Dementia Choir. She has been awarded an MBE for services to drama and charity.

Sir John Peace, Lord-Lieutenant of Nottinghamshire, was awarded the Royal Victorian Order, while Antony May, the former chief executive of Nottinghamshire County Council who is now Chief Executive Officer of Nottingham University Hospitals, received an OBE for services to local government. Barbara Mary Maddison, honorary vice-president of the National Council of Women of Great Britain, has been awarded an MBE for services to Young Women.

Congratulations to all of them for recognition of their contributions to local and national life.

Nottingham Refugee Week

refugee week

Nottingham Refugee Week runs until this Sunday and is an annual cultural festival that celebrates the culture of sanctuary we have built here in Nottingham. Delivered through a fabulous programme of events organised in partnership with refugee and asylum-seeking communities across Nottingham, it is an act of welcome, a gesture of solidarity and a shared celebration with people who have sought refuge here.

Over the course of the week, organisations across our city unite to deliver a programme of events designed to bring our communities together ? from film screenings to shared meals, football tournaments to comedy gigs. All events are free to people seeking asylum, and most are free to everyone.

I was pleased to attend the launch in Sneinton Market on Saturday and really enjoyed the free entertainment, food, information and activities?on offer. Find out what events are happening here [ [link removed] ]
