I am delighted to have this opportunity to wish everyone the compliments of the season.
As Chairman of the Council, it has been a privilege to visit many areas of the East Riding of Yorkshire and meet many people of all ages and from different walks of life. I have been overwhelmed by the commitment of so many individuals and organisations that work tirelessly to make the area in which they work and live a better place for future generations.
Christmas, whilst being a time of great joy for many, can also be a time of great sadness and hardship for others, particularly those who are lonely or have recently lost family members or close friends. I would like to wish you a future that will be happy, successful and above all peaceful. I would also like to send a special thank you to all those people who have to work over the Christmas and New Year holidays.
I am sure that most of you will be celebrating Christmas at home in the company of your family and friends but is also a time to reflect on the past and to look to the future with confidence.
I hope you have a safe and happy Christmas surrounded by kindness and warmth and that the New Year brings peace, happiness and prosperity to you all.
