Home – High Sheriff of Berkshire

Last Friday I visited @berksmstherapy in Reading. The centre provides a range of therapies to support those with MS.
We started at their oxygen therapy chamber (pictured here), which is the only one in Berkshire. We also toured their therapy rooms, impressive specialist gym and communal rooms.
The service users I spoke with were highly complimentary about the centre (its people and facilities) and invaluable support offered. It is a warm and uplifting environment.
Thank you very much Claire Frew and Pippa Vincent-Cooke (next picture) for being so generous with your time and of course the tea and biscuits!

Last Friday morning I was invited to give a talk to approx. 200 sixth form students at Trinity School Newbury about my role as High Sheriff. This was part of the students` PSHE (Personal, Social, Health and Economic) education programme.
Thank you Assistant Head of Sixth Form Diana Evans and students who looked after me and good luck to everyone taking exams this summer.

On Saturday evening I attended The Mayor of the Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead`s charity dinner, which was in aid of @thameshospice. It was an Indian-themed evening with lovely food and entertainment. Enjoying the `Ruby Murray` was `Marlene Boyce`, aka Sue Holderness (see next photo), who is Patron of the Hospice. Well done Mandy and Harry for bringing the community together in aid of a good cause.

This morning I attended the Ascot Racecourse Supports Community Challenge Grand Final, sponsored by @ascotracecourse (driven by Jacqui Greet) and @learningtowork (driven by Nancy Lalor and Rebecca Saich).
Seven Berkshire schools competed for a £1,000 donation (and other prizes) for the charity they have been supporting during the year. The finalists were @garthhillcollege_official, Eden Girls` School, Baylis Court School, @hgs.1952, @theale_green_school, @churchmead_insta, @altwoodschool.
Supported charities were @duchenneuk, @sloughrefugeesupport, @thedashcharity, SHOC, @launchpadreading, @crossroadscareslough, @the_baby_bank.
The schools ran through why they supported their nominated charities, their fundraising activities and overall impact of their activities within their communities, with the most impactful school the winner.
Gerry Lejeune, CEO of @berkshirecommunityfoundation, @jackmrankin, Windsor MP and myself were the judges.
Well done to the winners, @hgs.1952.
They were given a close run by @churchmead_insta, who received a £1,000 donation from the High Sheriff`s Fund. @berkshirecommunityfoundation kindly donated £250 to the other five schools.
The energy from the event was terrific.
