I know many parents and children may be worried about the RAAC concrete situation affecting some of our schools. Today the minister responsible for school buildings, Baroness Barran, visited Chelmsford. She went to see the work that has been carried out at Springfield Primary School.
I popped into one of the Holiday Activities and Food program running this summer in many Chelmsford schools. The HAF gives children access to exciting activities over the holidays as well as a good lunch.
In July, it was a great joy for me to attend the graduation of Anglia Ruskin University’s first cohort of medical students. This is the first time that medical doctors have ever been trained in Essex.
The Chelmsford based charity Blesma, The Limbless Veterans has been supporting servicemen who have lost limbs for over 90 years. They have nearly 3,000 members across the UK of men, and women, who have served in our armed forces and lost limbs.
I had a huge amount of fun at the opening of the new Ninja Warrior UK Chelmsford in the Meadows. It’s great to have a new venue bringing people into our city centre. Please do share this post with others who may enjoy it.
I have been catching up with First Bus Essex regarding local bus services. The local policing and town centre policing team have been doing a large amount of work to tackle anti-social behaviour at the bus station, it was good to hear that this is having a positive impact.
