Thursday 18 February 2010

My blog is a day earlier today as I'm taking tomorrow off with Tracy and the children. I think I'm being taken to see Avatar, which I had no idea I wanted to see...

I spent this morning at Monkton Park with Andrew Kerr. It was good to see so many people in the three face to face sessions that we held - almost 90 or so people attended. It was good for us to learn about Andrew's background and the reasons for him coming to Wiltshire.

He summarised this as wanting to lead Wiltshire's key goal of stronger resilient communities, through high quality, low cost services, open honest, local decision making and working together for the good of our communities. This vision and strong leadership is something that he wants to build on with us and our members to do three things:
Make partnership a way of life
Make Wiltshire one of the best local authorities in the UK and the best place to work for
Making localism and local determination our greatest strength
He was clear in his belief that Wiltshire can achieve these things in a short space of time, making Wiltshire an even better place to work, play and visit.

Enjoy the rest of the half term break and talk again next week.
