Regular readers may recall my article about the 20s Plenty campaign in a previous edition of Elyi. Under the scheme, traffic in Ely will be kept to a 20mph limit by signage and road markings. This will ease congestion, reduce toxic emissions and make roads safer thus increasing active travellers' confidence to use the roads, especially for short journeys e.g. the school run. The City will be safer for pedestrians too. But we don't have 20s Plenty yet.
I am delighted to announce that we have taken delivery of wheelie bin stickers with the 20s Plenty logo on them. They're A4 sized and intended to remind everyone, especially drivers that Ely residents want the City's roads to be safe. These are free to Ely residents to stick on their bins and display proudly. The Council will assess the roads most likely to benefit and pop the stickers through letterboxes along them in the New Year.

CLLR RICHARD MORGAN THE RIGHT WORSHIPFUL THE MAYOR OF ELY
Since the last edition of Elyi I have lain wreaths at the War Memorial for Remembrance Day and for the memorial for the Cambridgeshire Regiment in St Etheldreda’s Chapel in the cathedral. I was pleased to read ‘My Boy Jack’ by Rudyard Kipling at the Market Square. On behalf of the city council, I presented the Honorary Freedom of the City of Ely to former mayors Sheila Friend-Smith and Richard Hobbs in recognition for long and valuable service to the local community. I have attended two art exhibitions at Babylon Gallery by local artists Amy Wormald and Stuart Green; and attended a Service of Celebration & Thanksgiving for the new ordering of St Mary’s Church.
I was pleased to attend fine artist, Stuart Green's exhibition at the Babylon Gallery recently. He was my art teacher some 40 years ago so many memories were shared.
During the next few months current councillors and prospective councillors will be deciding whether to seek a new term, to stand down, or to seek office for the first time. If you think you are able to give up some of your spare time by serving the community as an elected councillor please speak to me or the clerk about your obligations: there are about twelve Full Council Meetings a year, plus monthly planning and other committee meetings to attend. All meetings are open to the public so do come and attend as a taster!
Over the Christmas period we have seen the trees illuminated in Market Square, Old Palace Yard, outside Oliver Cromwell House, and in the Cathedral. The city council is most grateful to all the volunteers who helped erect the street illuminations and especially to the American airmen from RAF/USAF Lakenheath who also came to help out.
As we move into 2023 let us continue in the spirit of hope and optimism – there will be better times ahead but no matter what the future holds we must always support each other.
At Christmas we should think of the bereaved, those who continue to battle illness and those who may be lonely, isolated or vulnerable. In particular, keep in mind the families of our late council colleagues, Alan Arnold and Mike Rouse. The Mayoress and I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and wish you a Happy New Year!
Richard Morgan

Laying a wreath on behalf of the City Council during the Remembrance Ceremony on Ely Market Place
Many congratulations to Richard Hobbs and Sheila Friend-Smith who were honoured for their outstanding service to the City of Ely. Colleagues, family and friends gathered at Ely Maltings on 29th November for the ceremony where they were made "Honorary Freemen" of the city. This was put forward some time ago by the late, great Mike Rouse and it was the very pleasant duty of the current Mayor of Ely, Cllr Richard Morgan to carry out the presentation.
It was a moment almost unique in the history of the City of Ely as it was only the second time that the City Council has solemnly resolved that the Mayor of the City of Ely Council shall proclaim the Freedom of the City of Ely on two outstanding living individuals. To become an Honorary Freeman of Ely, a person must have been born in the city, lived there for at least 25 years, or given positive national or international attention to it.
Sheila and Richard have both served as Ely's Mayor more than once, were both members of the District Council and enthusiastic supporters of the Ely Master Plan that was constituted 12 years ago, and ultimately gave rise to the cinema complex, the new bypass, and the new housing to the north of the city, all of which have contributed to the prosperity of Ely. As city councillors they worked together on various city initiatives, including installing the lift and bringing Sessions House into use as the City Council Headquarters.
In proclaiming them Freemen of the City of Ely, Richard Morgan said, "I only propose a formal recognition of the place they have long since won in the history of this place and in the affections of our fellow citizens." EXCERPTS FROM THE CITATIONS:
MRS SHEILA FRIEND-SMITH MBE for the long and valuable
Ely service she has rendered to the citizens of the City of Ely by her dedicated commitment as Mayor and Councillor of the City of Ely Council, Chairman and Councillor of East Cambs District Council and County Councillor for Cambridgeshire County Council, as Governor for Highfields School, Ely College and the Lantern School and founder of the Friends of Jubilee Gardens. Also, for her commitment as Chairman of ACHE, spokesperson for Social Services and her contribution to the Carer’s Charter and for her years of dedication to the Needham’s Foundation, Ely Perspective and her contribution to the setting up of the Old Dispensary Community venue. Also, for her services to the Ely in Bloom Committee and her involvement in the Bernie Parker gardening award project for schools.
MR RICHARD HOBBS for the long and valuable service he has rendered
Ely to the citizens of the City of Ely by his dedicated commitment as Mayor and Councillor of the City of Ely Council and East Cambs District Council, Chair of Governors for Ely St John’s Primary School, and founder member of Fenprobe. Also, for his commitment as Chairman of the Needham’s Foundation, Ribe Twinning Association, founder member of Campaign Amateur Theatre and for his contribution to the saving of the Princess of Wales Hospital and voluntary services at Ely Cathedral.
What if you looked in the mirror and LOVED your reflection? What if you didn’t hide at the back every time someone wanted to take a photo? What if you radiated energy and a renewed lust for life?
My name is Angela Hancock and I am committed to helping you feel confident and energised every single day!
Having tried every diet on the planet with limited and fleeting success, I was often left hangry and frustrated; and like a failure for not having the willpower to make it work.
Then, 8 years ago when I was 43, I was introduced to Isagenix and it changed the game for me. Now I love nothing more than paying this forward to other women who have a burning desire to look and feel better than they ever have!!!
Here’s what
Tracy from Ely said:
"I first met Angela in
May 2022 when we trained at the same gym. She was very empowering and encouraging during our workouts, and I felt an instant connection with her. We connected on social media and her motivational thoughts and education around her products made me wonder if this is what I’d been waiting for. All my adult life I've struggled with my weight, and wished for a magic pill and these products have been it!"
Angela's 30 day transformation
Although it took me a week or so to get used to the regime, now it's second nature: it's easy, quick and delicious, and I would encourage everyone to try it with nothing to lose apart from inches and pounds.
Sherine from Littleport shares:
Tracy's 30 day transformation
"This 18 day reset has been much easier than my first 30 day programme earlier this summer. By day 4 I had so much energy and felt so good that I’d started a Couch to 5k, been to the gym twice and managed a cleanse day and I was already 2.4 pounds lighter and feeling an improvement! Feeling great doing this programme again just in time for Xmas (so I don't feel guilty eating my chocolate orange this year). Thanks Angela for getting me started again!!!"
