Then on Tuesday 2nd May Andy and Jason meet with faith leaders from across Croydon at their regular quarterly Mayoral briefings.
On Sunday 7th May Andy joined with Forestdale Church and Forestdale Resident Association at the Forestdale Forum as they organised a community funday to celebrate the Kings Coronation. Finally on Bank holiday Andy joined with Mayor Perry and all faith communities across Croydon at the Faith Togethers Picnic.

“The King’s Coronation has provided a great opportunity for communities across Croydon to come together, it has been a real pleasure to join with our faith communities this week and shine a spotlight on the work they do that strengthens the communities that make up Croydon.”
