As a lover of gardening, it was brilliant to join @LondonHeritageQ outside Westminster Cathedral and finish off the piazza’s tree planters! They are looking refreshed and ready for summer, thank you for inviting me! 🌿🌷

A pleasure to welcome @CardinalHumeCHC to @CityWestminster last night. This amazing organisation is marking its 40th anniversary & it was moving to hear accounts of the struggles & successes of those building a new life in the UK. Homelessness for the young a major challenge.

It was brilliant to have the author and historian Nicholas Travers in the parlour this week. As a lover of history himself, the Lord Mayor enjoyed discussing Nicholas’s new book which offers a comprehensive look into Victorian Britain 📚

Back in October, the brilliantly talented @royalacademyofmusic student Luca Zucchi created a special suite of music to mark my time as Lord Mayor. I’m now thrilled to be able to share his work with you! 🎼 Click here to listen: westminster.gov.uk/news/roya…

A fantastic tour of the exciting development at 105 Victoria Street today. Just over the road from City Hall, we’ve watched the project take shape and I’m looking forward to seeing the finished product- no doubt it will be a fine addition to Victoria Street!
