THE MAYOR'S CHRISTMAS MESSAGE FROM CLLR BRYAN PEARSON
Thu 20th December 2018
As Mayor of Beverley, elected by my fellow Beverley Town Councillors, I have never been prouder to represent the residents of Beverley for my term of office.
The Mayoress, Mrs Shirley Pearson and I have visited many community groups, churches, residential homes and schools
and it has never ceased to amaze us how community spirited and caring people of the town are. We have been so well received no matter where we have visited. We were so proud to be in Belfast when Beverley was awarded a Silver Gilt Medal as a first-time finalist in the RHS Britain in Bloom campaign and attaining a gold mark for community scoring the highest in the large town category.
A very initiative was the commemorations of the end of WW1 when the Town Council joined with various organisations such
as SSAFA, St Mary’s, the Minster, local artists and musicians to produce a variety of well-attended and moving events and
displays. With our beautiful Christmas lights and wonderful events like the Food Festival, Christmas Festivals, various music
festivals and NGS Open Garden Day we are delighted to be able to share our little gem of a town with others. A special thank you to all who make a difference to our wonderful and historic town by making it a Brighter Beverley!
I know that at this time of year I am usually upstaged by another man in a red coat but it is wonderful to see such happy smiling faces of people enjoying what Beverley has to offer. As we move into 2019, I look forward to meeting many more of you throughout the festive period and for the remainder of my Mayoral year. It now leaves me to wish
you all a happy and safe Christmas and a prosperous New Year.
Cllr Bryan Pearson
