Mayor of Higham Ferrers 2023-24
We are pleased to announce that following our Mayor Making ceremony on the evening of Monday 15th May 2023 Cllr Nigel Brown has been appointed Mayor of Higham Ferrers for 2023-24. Cllr Vijay Paul has been appointed as Deputy Mayor for 2023-24.
Cllr Nigel Brown made a short speech at the event:
Thank you for coming to Mayor Making tonight.
I would like to thank Cllr Gardner and Cllr Paul for sharing the role of Deputy Mayor last year. I would also like to thank my wife, Jackie, for being a very supportive Mayoress.
It has been quite a year as your Mayor. In September we had the sad passing of Queen Elizabeth II. Of late the recent joys and celebrations of the coronation of King Charles III.
I look forward to the honour of continuing to represent the town as your Mayor and to hosting some more fundraising events which I hope to see you at.
This year I raised £2100 for my chosen charity, Northants Search and Rescue.
I have not chosen a particular charity this year but will be receiving grant applications from community groups and charities within the town for funds from the money I raise.
I will continue to try and be at the monthly Farmers Markets.
Once again, thank you all for coming, and enjoy the evening.
Any queries for the Mayor or invitations can be directed to the Mayor's Secretary at info@highamferrers-tc.gov.uk.
