From 2006 to 2010, I was a councillor for Lee Green ward in the London Borough of Lewisham. During that time, I blogged regularly and in 2009 I won the Tim Garden Award for the Best Blog by a Liberal Democrat Holding Public Office. My blog posts from my term of office are archived here in case they prove of use to former constituents, or to those who share my annoyance with faulty street furniture
You might remember that I mentioned about a month ago that my colleague Pete Pattisson was planning to run the London 10k for the Suzy Lamplugh Trust.
Pete completed the run, and he’s asked me to thank everyone who sponsored him. He writes:
“A huge thanks to everyone who sponsored my 10K run, in aid of the Suzy Lamplugh Trust, a charity that helps people stay safe. I joined 27,000 others in the race through the streets of central London, raising £595. Too many people in Lewisham, especially young people, have become victims of violence recently, and so I was proud to do my small part to help others stay safe.”
Pete’s also too modest to point out that he finished the run in just 44 minutes.
