Introduction from Ed Nixon
Welcome
After three years spent working as the Chair of Great Linford Parish Council (GLPC), it is with more than a tinge of sadness that I am bidding farewell to the place that has been such an important part of my life.
Work commitments are taking me out of the area, and indeed out of the country. As you read this, I will be settling into a new career challenge in the UAE.
Working for GLPC, first as a Councillor and then in my current role, has been an enormous honour. It has been one of the most fulfilling things I have ever done, and the opportunity to give something back to this wonderful Parish has been an absolute privilege.
I will miss the GLPC team who work tirelessly on behalf of all Parishioners to make this place such a special one. Our community is exceptional, and my role has enabled me to see first hand how many people go above and beyond to support each other.
I am thrilled that the work undertaken here was recognised at a national level with the win in The Star Council Awards for Parish Council of the Year and the nomination for Parish Clerk of the Year.
I know just how dedicated the team is, and now everyone else does, too!
I would also like to mention the successful Community Forum, which is a platform for you to raise any concerns. Please continue to support these sessions moving forward – GLPC is here to help, and these events put the issues before those who can make positive changes.
GLPC has been a special part of my life and I leave knowing that those I worked alongside will continue to build on our previous successes and ensure that the Parish only ever continues to evolve positively.
While I will no longer be involved, I guarantee that I will be watching from afar, as the Parish continues to flourish.
I wish every Parishioner, and the GLPC team as a whole, continued success for the future.
Thank you for the opportunity to work for you, and alongside you.
