The Mayor is chairing a sombre and reflective meeting of Full Council tonight - the first such meeting since the death of council leader Ian Brookfield was announced earlier this month. A lovely touch to see Ian's mug left at his desk in the chamber.
@WolvesMayor I worked very closely with Ian as a logistics consultant during the pandemic. He was always gracious and caring, wanting the best for the city.
RIP Ian. Duty Done- Rest
