Leaders condemn Ukraine invasion

The leaders of the three main parties at Blaby District Council have all signed a statement from the Council of European Municipalities and Regions, endorsed by the Local Government Association, strongly condemning the multiple attacks and violations of the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine.

Councillor Terry Richardson, Leader of Blaby District Council, Councillor Sam Maxwell, Leader of the Labour Group, and Councillor Geoff Welsh, Leader of the Liberal Democrat Group, all put their signature to the statement, which can be viewed on the Local Government Association website.

Information about support for British nationals, donations and other help you can offer are available on our Ukraine Support page of the website.

The thoughts of everyone at Blaby District Council are with the people of the Ukraine and in solidarity we will be lighting up our Council offices in Narborough in the Ukrainian colours of blue and yellow.
