VALE mayor Janice Charles enjoyed a big lunch when she took up an invite to visit Ysgol y Deri, in Penarth.

Councillor Charles was invited to join the school’s catering and hospitality group for its Big Lunch event on Wednesday, June 14.

It was a nationwide event run by The Eden Project, in Cornwall.

The mayor heard about how the group had been learning and practicing new cookery skills throughout the year.

Cllr Charles said: “I have thoroughly enjoyed sharing my lunch. The food was delicious and a credit to everyone from the catering and hospitality group at Ysgol y Deri.”

The mayor has dedicated her mayoral year to community service.

Any community organization in the Vale of Glamorgan is invited to contact the mayor.
