Today we talk with the Mayor of Broadstairs Mike Garner

About The Mayor – Cllr Mike Garner

Cllr Garner was the first ever Green Party councillor elected in 2019 onto both the Town and District councils representing the people in the ward of St Peter’s, a role he has thoroughly enjoyed. In 2020 he became leader of the Green Party at Thanet District Council. He is now particularly pleased to be the first Green Party councillor to have been elected as a Mayor in Thanet but acknowledges that it is not a party-political role. Instead, he recognises it as an opportunity to work with all councillors, council officers, and residents to make the town a place to be proud to live in and one which visitors want to stay and come back to.

Hello and welcome to this introduction to this new channel. Here you will hear about the history of Broadstairs a place that is home for my family and I. I hope you enjoy and will continue to listen to future podcasts featuring the people of Broadstairs as they share the stories of their lives, their work, their loves and other information. Some of this may be new to you, as creating a podcast is to me! I look forward to you visiting our beautiful town.
