Podcasting reaches Ministerial levels
I recently interviewed The Rt Hon Beverley Hughes MP, Minister of State for Children, Young People and Families and newly appointed Minister for the North West, for a podcast we recorded at an event held by the North West Employers Organisation, that recognised the successful development of Elected Councillors in Local Government.
The Minister presented awards to the Councils that have this year achieved ‘Charter’ recognition for their work in training and developing elected members of their councils. Afterwards, she told me “It’s absolutely critical that we have good people in councillor roles, leading councils, giving councils good political leadership and working really closely with their communities and meeting those communities needs.That’s what is at the heart of local government for me.”
It was useful to be reminded of the huge role that ‘Elected Members’ have to play in the leadership and direction of our local authorities. I’ll consider that the next time my local elections come around.
