|
Good afternoon to you all.
I hope you are all well.
I know what you’re thinking, It’s Thursday, What on Earth is he doing sending the fortnightly email out on a Thursday, has he lost the plot. Well, probably but I’m on annual leave tomorrow, I’m off to camp in a field over the bank holiday so some of you may definitely think I’ve lost the plot but I love it!
Anyway, lets get on with this exciting email.
AGM May 12th, 19:00, Committee Rooms B,C & D will be full of refreshments and an NHW Committee all ready to tell you all about the past year and future of Merton NHW. There will also talks from Trading Standards and the Neighbourhood Wardens. Included in your free ticket is some very nice refreshments and maybe a glass of wine. It really is going to be a fantastic night. If you are interested in coming please let me know. There will be more information about how to get to the committee rooms nearer the time.

IDAHOBIT 2026 The International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia (IDAHOBIT) is a global moment of solidarity and collective action for LGBTQIA+ communities. Observed every year on 17 May, it brings together individuals, organisations, and governments from around the world to raise awareness of the issues facing LGBTQIA+ people and to advocate for the laws and policies needed to protect their rights. Although the actual day is May 17th, Merton Council will be holding a small ceremony outside the Civic Centre at 11am on May the 15th. We would welcome you to join us.

There you go, I’m sure you’ve heard enough from me for another fortnight. Have a great bank holiday if you get to enjoy it and I’m hoping the sun comes out for everyone and the weatherproofing I put on my tent last summer works!
Warm regards
