Councillor Trish Fivey has been re-appointed as the Mayor of Sutton.
The decision was made just before Mental Health Awareness Week, at Sutton's second virtual annual council meeting last week.
This year the mayor has chosen The Sutton Mental Health Foundation and Home-Start Sutton as her two charities.
Born in Enniskillen, Northern Ireland, and one of nine children, Fivey represented Northern Ireland in netball.
She has been a Sutton councillor since 2014 and has lived in the borough for 40 years where she brought up her two daughters and founded several successful businesses.
Councillor Fivey says she will continue to support the Chris Donovan Trust, which works with offenders to help them understand the consequences of their crime on their victims.
It has been confirmed that councillor Moral will also stay on in the role as Deputy Mayor for the next year.
Speaking about the news, councillor Fivey said: “The past year has been hugely challenging for all Sutton residents and businesses. It has also been a very different year as mayor.
“Madam Deputy Mayor, Councillor Annie Moral, and I have visited many key workers, voluntary sector organisations and local businesses in the borough over the past twelve months to thank them for all their incredible hard work and commitment to our community during the pandemic.
“In the year ahead, we would like to continue to visit as many voluntary groups as possible, so we can show our appreciation for all their incredible work supporting residents and helping the borough recover.”
