The Mayor thanked all Members who attended the events arranged throughout the Borough for Remembrance Sunday and Armistice Day. A special thanks was given to Linda Hillier, the Mayor’s Chaplain, for her help and assistance with the arrangements for the annual occasion.
The Christmas Lights Switch-On took place on Saturday, 18th November in the Town Square. The event was well attended and the crowd enjoyed the entertainment and firework display.
The Mayor informed the meeting that Councillors Hussain, Sadiq, Chahal and Smith had spent a night with just a cardboard box for shelter as they took part in the London and Slough Run Big Sleepout to raise awareness and funds for homeless people living in Slough. The London and Slough Run has been running emergency night shelters for the past 4 years and the sponsorship raised would ensure that the shelters were open again this year.
