Mayor of Tamworth Borough Council, Cllr Tina Clements, has reached her century - attending 100 functions in her first 10 weeks as Mayor.

Cllr Clements hit the landmark when she represented the borough at Polesworth Cycling Festival in neighbouring North Warwickshire.

Since taking office in May, Cllr Clements has had a packed diary each week, attending a wide range of events including school assemblies, theatre productions, charity fundraisers, coffee mornings, sporting events and civic services.

She also welcomed the Olympic Torch into the Castle Grounds when it came to Tamworth during the Olympic Torch Relay last month, was a guest of the Queen at a Royal garden party at Buckingham Palace and held a charity Zumbathon at the SnowDome.

Cllr Clements said: “It is a real honour to be chosen as the Mayor of Tamworth and to represent the borough at so many different events. It is a real privilege for me to have shared in these events to have met so many wonderful and inspiring people.”
