Dave Hodgson with fellow participants in the Bedford Memory Walk 2012

Bedford Memory Walk 2012

As what passed for 'summer' this year clings on for a few final days of dry, warmish weather, I was delighted for all involved with the excellent Bedford Memory Walk at Bedford's Priory Country Park on Sunday that conditions were fair.

Mayor Dave Hodgson talks to residents who have received help and support at the new Bedford Borough Jobs Hub

Jobs Hub Open and Already Getting Results

Yesterday I was at the new Jobs Hub on Greyfriars for its official opening. The Jobs Hub is an innovative project, which we believe is the first centre of its kind in the country, to help people into work, training or enterprise. Its town centre location, open-door drop-in approach and unique capacity to link people with the services or support they need is designed to make a real difference for residents during these difficult economic times.
