Anne Scott's letter to the residents of Ore
Dear Ore Resident,
Dear Ore Resident,
In an Observer article Liberal Democrat Leader and Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg vowed there would be no return to savage cuts of the Thatcher years. The article is reprinted below:
A short service of remembrance, led by a chaplain, was held at Christchurch Tower in the Garden of Remembrance, Sandgate road, Folkestone. Touchingly, the Methodist congregation from across the road came out to join the service.
In honour of William Harvey Day, to celebrate the life and achievements of one of Folkestone's most famous sons, it was a great pleasure to meet the representatives from the Harvarian Society, most of whom were members of the Royal College of Physicians.
The William Harvey Day service on Sunday afternoon began with a robed procession to the newly cleaned William Harvey Statue close to the Leas Cliff Hall, where a chaplain conducted a short service. The statue has been cleaned by Folkestone Town Council after taking over responsibility for the statue from Shepway District Council - and it looks really good!
South Lakeland MP Tim Farron has called on House of Commons authorities to allow Kendal based NJO Technology to be given the contract to light the historic clock tower with LED lights.
