Meet My Team

City Mayor at De Montfort University
City Mayor at De Montfort University

Thanks to everyone who's seen us at our Meet The City Mayor Team events so far this year.

Our next event will be at Eyres Monsell Primary School Spring Fete on Saturday 26th May from 1.30pm to 2.30pm.


We've planned another event at:

 

  • New Parks on Saturday 7th July from 11am to 12 midday  

    (at the shopping area on Aikman Avenue).


My Executive team's priorities

Supported by my Executive team of five assistant mayors and a deputy mayor, I'm working to lead our city into a new and exciting era.


My team's priorities for Leicester are: 


  • An accountable, democratic and strong Council
  • Leicester: a place to do business
  • Leicester: a low carbon city
  • Our neighbourhoods and communities - people, culture and leisure
  • Getting about in Leicester
  • Leicester: a healthy and active city
  • Our children and young people
  • The built and natural environment around us in Leicester.  

 

Who does what in my Executive team?

I'll lead on all matters of constitution and governance, emergency planning and resilience and the council's new responsibilities for health and wellbeing. Currently, I also lead on economic development. 


Councillor Rory Palmer deputises for myself, and has responsibilities for transport and climate change matters.


My other team members' responsibilities are below:


  • Councillor Mohammed Dawood leads on adult social care and housing
  • Councillor Vi Dempster has responsibility for children, young people and schools
  • Councillor Manjula Sood oversees health and community involvement
  • Councillor Piara Singh Clair leads on culture, heritage, leisure and sport
  • Councillor Sarah Russell has responsibility for neighbourhood services.
