The Chairman made the following announcements:
“On 9th February 2024 the Government created some new peers. One of those ennobled was Charles Banner. Charles was brought up in Barnt Green and his proud mother, an ex-parish Councillor, still lives in the village. Charles has taken the name Lord Banner of Barnt Green in Worcestershire. This is a great honour for Barnt Green and we would like to offer congratulations to Lord Banner.” The Chairman thanked Councillor C. Hotham for bringing this to the Council’s attention and the Council joined in a round of applause in congratulating Lord Banner.
The Chairman also reminded Members that there was a comedy night due to take place on Friday 1st March at Bromsgrove Golf Centre in aid of the Chairman’s charity – Age UK.
