📚 Just finished a meeting of the Governors at Red Row Primary School.

It reminded me how important voluntary leadership roles are in our communities. School governors give their time freely to support schools, help shape their future, provide challenge and oversight, and ultimately help ensure the best possible outcomes for our children.

Across Northumberland, countless people volunteer as governors, trustees and committee members, bringing with them valuable professional skills and leadership experience gained through their careers. Whether that’s in business, healthcare, education, finance, construction or the voluntary sector, those skills can make a real difference when shared with local organisations.

Not all volunteering happens on the front line. Much of the most important work takes place around meeting tables, helping organisations make good decisions, remain accountable and plan for the future.

A huge thank you to everyone who gives up their time in these roles. Our schools, charities and community groups are stronger because of your commitment. 👏

If you’ve ever thought about getting involved, I’d encourage you to consider it. Giving back to your community is one of the most rewarding things you can do. ❤️

📱👧👦 Children deserve a childhood free from the pressures and dangers of social media.

That’s why the Government is taking decisive action to ban under-16s from accessing social media platforms, introduce stronger protections against harmful online content, restrict contact from strangers, and tackle dangerous AI chatbots aimed at young people.

This isn’t just about social media—it’s about putting children’s wellbeing first, supporting parents, and giving young people more opportunities to enjoy sport, creativity, nature and real-life friendships.

It’s time to give children the freedom to be kids again. 💛

🩸 World Blood Donor Day – 14 June 🩸

Today we celebrate and thank the incredible people who donate blood and help save lives every single day.

Just one blood donation can help up to three people, providing vital support for patients undergoing surgery, cancer treatment, childbirth complications, accidents and many other medical emergencies.

The need for blood never stops, and neither does the need for donors. If you've ever thought about giving blood, now is a great time to find out more and book an appointment.

A huge thank you to everyone who already donates – your generosity makes a real difference to families across our communities and beyond.

❤️ Give blood. Give hope. Give life.

🕯️ Remembering Grenfell 🕯️

Today we remember the 72 lives lost in the Grenfell Tower tragedy and stand with the survivors, families, friends and communities whose lives were changed forever.

Grenfell was more than a building. It was a home, a community and a place where people lived, worked and looked after one another. The events of 14 June 2017 shocked the nation and highlighted the importance of safety, accountability and listening to residents’ voices.

As we pause to reflect, we remember those who never came home, honour the courage of the emergency services and local people who responded that night, and reaffirm the commitment that such a tragedy must never happen again.

Their memory lives on, and they will never be forgotten.

💚 72 lives remembered. Forever in our thoughts.

‼️Appeal‼️

Anyone who knows who dumped all this rubbish overnight on the old school field, please get in touch.

We've worked hard to keep the green spaces nice planting trees, improving parks, and organising community litter picks only for someone to think this is okay. 😡

Today’s Northumberland Miners’ Picnic was a powerful reminder of the heritage, values and sense of community that shaped so much of life across our county.

For generations, mining communities were built on hard work, sacrifice and looking after one another. The legacy of those communities is still all around us today – from welfare halls and community centres to schools, sports facilities and social clubs that were created through the determination and contributions of local people.

It is important that we take time to remember not only the industry itself, but the men, women and families whose lives revolved around it. We remember those who lost their lives underground, those who suffered injury and illness, and the families who carried on through difficult times while helping to build strong, proud and resilient communities.

The Miners’ Picnic remains one of Northumberland’s most important traditions because it brings people together to celebrate that shared heritage. It reminds us that our history is not something confined to books or museums – it lives on in our villages, our communities and the values that many of us still hold dear today.

As the generations who experienced mining life first-hand become fewer, it becomes even more important that we continue to tell these stories, preserve these traditions and ensure that the contribution of mining communities is never forgotten.

Our past has helped shape who we are. Remembering it is not about looking backwards – it is about understanding the foundations on which our communities were built.

I love watching films that cover this time like Billy Elliot, Pride and others that reflect the times in a moving and passionate way. Also the fascination of documentaries about those times, the strikes and the struggles but also the amazing strong and resilient communities that still exist today through families. 🥰
