Christmas message from the leader of Northumberland County Council
It’s a year where Covid has again impacted all our lives, starting with a lockdown and ending with tighter restrictions as we face up to a new variant. We all must do everything we can to keep our loved ones safe this Christmas.
The year has also seen many positives – not least the gradual opening up of our county over the summer which gave a much-needed boost to our tourism and hospitality industries.
And what has stayed the same throughout 2021 was the fantastic community spirit we have in Northumberland - perhaps best shown in the aftermath of Storm Arwen, where residents showed us what they do best – looking after and supporting each other in difficult times.

I hope you all have a safe, enjoyable and peaceful Christmas.
