So happy to be raising funds for this incredibly important cause - if just one person in ten in Kent donates a pound we will raise £200,000 please be the one!

[KCC Chairman @KCCChair]

@KCCChair has launched his 'Found A Pound' appeal in aid of his chosen charities supporting Kent's Young Carers. If you can donate that loose change found in a pocket, glove compartment or washing machine seal, please visit https://t.co/l7j2izAJGS

I am proud to have launched my “Found a Pound Appeal” in support of Kent’s Young Carers and the charities that I have chosen to support this year who support them. Found a Pound is to encourage everyone who can afford to donate to give an amount that they can afford.

Was privileged to attend the Gurka Memorial Fund Ceremony in Folkestone this morning. My congratulations to Dhan Gurung, his fellow trustees and the Nepalese community in Folkestone for coming together to celebrate and commemorate the Gurka’s contribution over so many years.

Am so pleased to be flying the flag of St George over County Hall in Maidstone in recognition and support of the achievement of England’s lionesses in reaching the final of the Women’s World Cup on Sunday.
Good Luck ladies and bring it home!!

[Lord-Lieutenant of Kent @LordLieutKent]

We are delighted that 7 new Kent Deputy Lieutenants have been appointed today, each of them honoured for their positive contributions to the County and Nation. They are Paul Barrett, Marian Boswall, Jane Carey-Harris, Hilary Edridge, Nicholas Fisher, Anan Shetty and Andrew Wood.

[Lord-Lieutenant of Kent @LordLieutKent]

The Lord-Lieutenant was delighted to welcome the Coronation Champions from Kent to a reception at her home to congratulate and thank them for all the voluntary work they do in the County. There were only 500 Coronation Champions in the Country so this is a huge achievement!🎉👑

It is so important to remember the sacrifices made 79 years ago on the anniversary of D-Day especially as freedoms are again challenged by Russian aggression.

Great to visit Fort Gardens in Gravesend today to support the EID Community Mela. What a wonderful event this is that draws together so much of the local communities. The goal is to make this Kent Wide - Let’s make that happen!

Where leaders of any company, knowingly and willfully break the law as is the case with P&O, they should be disqualified from holding any directorships in any UK company. They must be held personally responsible for their actions!

@MattBoughton93 Congratulations Matt - wishing you both much happiness.

Wishing GB News and @afneil the best of luck as they count down to their 8.00pm start. It will be so nice to have a truly independent news channel that we can rely on to report the news fairly and with integrity.

@lambertleese Was it ever thus - and the BBC in its wisdom continues to finance the farce.
