Happy International Women's Day! Celebrate the great work women do within our sector.

⚰️ @NALC has opposed #government proposals on burials, which would roughly halve the cemetery space available to many parish and town councils, lead to premature closure of many graveyards, and cause problems with residents who pre-purchased family plots. nalc.gov.uk/news/entry/194…

@ERNLLCA Annual General Meeting in full Zoom swing. Lots of good discussion.

Town and parish councils invest around £2bn in local communities but get no central support, says @jackieweaver in #Publicfinancelive21 session on the failure of centralism.

Congratulations to former @ERNLLCA Executive Committee member Councillor David Hasthorpe on being elected Mayor of North East Lincolnshire.

Well attended Clerks' Induction session today for @ERNLLCA member councils. Morning concentrated on governance and afternoon centred on the RFO role. Lots of good discussion. Thanks to all who attended.

Make sure your voice is heard - what if 20,000 of you here on Twitter sent in a contribution - wow!
