Agenda item

Report of the Director of Communications.

The Sub Committee considered a report of the Director of Communications on support for the Lord Mayor’s Show Ltd.

There was clarification that the Pageantmaster of the Lord Mayor’s Show Ltd was aware of these proposals.

RESOLVED, that officers and departments:

·         examine if they can give greater support of the Lord Mayor’s Show Ltd (LMS);

·         investigate other more diverse and interesting means to increase public engagement with the LMS;

·         look at generating potential activity which utilises the opportunities in the wider City during the day of LMS, from river procession right through to fireworks;

·         draw on the full range of our strategic relationships and partnerships to reinforce the relevance of the LMS as a metaphor for the role of the City itself.
