Getting my steps in campaigning for excellent YL councillor Sophie Thornton in Sheffield today. Only the lib Dems can beat Labour here, to challenge the failing labour council and to ensure that vital heritage assets are protected

It was great to visit @RealLifeOptions #Sheffield yesterday. They provide day services for adults with autism @RuthMilsom @sophthor and I loved the open day and enjoyed the arts & crafts stalls

I only went and did the 10k for @SheffieldMencap 🏃‍♀️ now, if me needing a police escort to the physio for a popped foot bone isn’t comedy enough for you to donate, I don’t know what is 👉

In case there was any doubt who was running @SheffLabour , here it is folks, local elected city councillor can not speak their mind or represent local residents on the Sheffield Local Plan without London Labour HQ’s say, step out of line, you are out. Sad Day for local Democracy

Me, @sophthor and Keiko 🐶 really enjoyed the Village Market at Greenhill Library this afternoon. We managed to avoid the rain and we came away with some lovely chocolates, cheese and some baklava pastries too! 😋

[Richard Shaw 🔶 @RichardShawLD]

The Lowedges Family Funday yesterday was a huge success - amazing turnout and the rain mostly held off too! Cllrs Simon Clement-Jones, @sophthor and I helped out with the drawing of the children’s toy raffle and we enjoyed the stalls and watching the medieval re-enactments too.
