A Mayor can be an excellent asset to an area if they are a good Mayor. They can be ambassadors for the area both inside the area and outside it. If the Mayor attends a function it gives it a certain level of gravitas and support.
PS - if you invite the Mayor to attend your event the press usually comes along and takes a picture so you get extra publicity for your events.  |
I agree with this posting wholeheartedly. As well as his official duties he has helped to raise a lot of money for charity, through the Mayoral Charity Fund. This year the Mayoral Charity's main beneficiaries are MacMillan Cancer Relief, East Lancashire Hospice and Hyndburn Homewise. Which are all charities who help people in Hyndurn.
