Dear All,

We all know that the Covid crisis has been very challenging to so many and we still have a long way to go before it is defeated but new vaccines give us cause for optimism as we look towards 2021

.
In the face of this pandemic so many people across Rutland have stepped up to the challenge in so many ways to support the vulnerable across our communities.

As you will know, the Lord-Lieutenant, Dr Sarah Furness, and I have written to over 250 people nominated by their towns and villages to thank them for their efforts but we realise that there are many more out there who have done great work across our county and we are very keen that this does not go without our thanks.

We have created a short video service to celebrate the work of all the volunteers across Rutland and you can view by clicking on the link below – please share it as widely as possible so that as many people as possible in the county can see it.

My thanks to everyone who helped put it together.

May I also take this opportunity to wish everyone happy and safe holidays with loved ones this Christmas time.

With my best wishes

Richard Cole
