Great sadness to hear of the death of His Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh. He devoted his very long life to the Queen, to support her and to serve the country. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Royal Family..

Today I was delighted to be able to present The Rose of Northamptonshire award to six worthy recipients. BRAVO to The Adult Social Services Assistive Technology Team, the Red Cross Northamptonshire Team, Wootton School, Titchmarsh Village Shop, Yardley Helping Yardley and last but not least, Carol Kendrick.

A great pleasure as my last task as High Sheriff to present to Mani and his team at Blakesley shop a Rose of Northamptonshire Award so richly deserved for all that they have done for our rural community during the Pandemic.

Here in the churchyard of St Giles in Northampton with curate Ali Wagner and sadly out of picture Alice Whitehead founder of #saveourstreettrees prospecting the site for new tree planting as some of the more venerable trees# reach the end of life. The trees will inject new life into a beautiful place and amenity in the heart of Northampton

Jenni Liversidge a very deserving recipient of a Rose of Northamptonshire Award was unable to join the Zoom presentation so very good to be able to make a presentation in person. Jennie made 270 masks to raise money for the planned reflective garden at Northampton Genera Hospital and for members of the community. Thank you Jenni. @northamptonshirecc

Very good to be back at Blakesley C of E Primary School where I was previously a governor to join Miranda Wixon and the team from Towcester Community Larder on the handing over to headteacher Laurie Hill of a consignment of hugely welcome computers funded by Northamptonshire Community Foundation through #tech4kids. Afterwards I had the pleasure of presenting richly deserved Rose of Northamptonshire Awards to Miranda, Brenda and Katie. @northantscf

It has been a great privilege over recent weeks to present Rose of Northamptonshire Awards to the very many across our county whose contributions to the response to the pandemic have had such positive impacts on their communities. Those receiving awards have so often reminded me that theirs has been a team effort illustrating well the strength of community and shared purpose which has come to the fore and which, hopefully, will be an enduring legacy.

Northampton Hope Centre Big Sleep Out. A huge thank you to the very many of you who sponsored me for the Sleep Out last night. For doubting Thomases amongst you here are snaps before the rain. By midnight I had ample proof that my basha making skills were no longer what they were in my very distant TA days but nothing that a hot bath and breakfast didn’t resolve. A sobering thought that this is not an option for the homeless… Due to your generosity I have all but reached my target of £5,000 which I know @northamptonhope needs and will put to best of use. In case you would like to donate now the link is in the bio.

It was a real pleasure to visit @northamptonhope again. Here not only do they care for and feed the homeless as they have done for the past 47 years but through their Learning 4 Living project help the homeless to gain skills, confidence and experience to move towards employability. The work of the Hope Centre represents in so many ways the embodiment of the Christmas message and we are very thankful for the wonderful work they do.

A beautiful Carol service at All Saints in Northampton. A great boost to the spirits in these difficult times. Thank you to my chaplain Fr Oliver, Jem Lowther, director of music and the wonderful choir.

. Support Northants brewers! Just prior to this second lockdown I toured Phipps NBC’s Albion brewery in Northampton and after that arduous work spent some time in the Albion Bar sampling the great beer. The brewery still draws its water from its own well, the Kings’ Well, by repute used by King John. MD Alaric Neville explained how they were just beginning to claw back business from lockdown 1. Lockdown 2 has now played havoc with sales and plans. A very tough time indeed. @northampton_food @madeinnorthants
