Green Councillor Abi Mills, who completed her year as Mayor on 9th May, has announced the impressive total that the Mayoral team raised for charity during her term – believed to be the most that any Mayor of Lancaster has raised by quite some margin. 

Abi’s Music with The Mayor initiative – a joint project with Citizens Advice North Lancashire – celebrated a variety of local musicians across the district as well as bringing in high-profile acts. The numerous fundraising gigs raised a whopping  £32,500. Abi also raised over £5,000 for Cancer Research, Cancercare and Smile for ME in separate events.

Green Councillors Hamish Mills and Sam Riches supported Abi as part of the Mayoral Team; between them they attended well over 100 events across Lancaster, Morecambe, Heysham and beyond.

Abi said: 

“It has been an honour to represent Lancaster District throughout the year, meeting people from local charities, organisations and seeing all the good there is in our community – thank you to everyone who invited us to their events, and thanks also to all those who supported our charity fundraisers.”

Councillor Abi Mills, the Mayor of Lancaster, has announced that she is to reduce her public schedule after being diagnosed with breast cancer. While she still plans to fulfil as many mayoral engagements as possible, treatment for the disease will inevitably mean a reduction in those she is able to attend.

The deputy mayor, Councillor Hamish Mills, will attend events and chair council meetings when she is unavailable.

Councillor Mills will also continue doing case work for the residents in Scotforth West, with the support from her fellow ward councillor, Councillor Tim Hamilton-Cox.

Abi said:

“I am doing well, keeping positive and looking forward to getting back to normal on the other side of this, but thought it was only fair to explain why I may not be able to attend some events or have to miss meetings. We are still planning lots of Music with the Mayor events and other charity events – so watch out for these!”
