Petersfield's MP is gloomy about the budget.

This week we are on location at the Petersfield Festival Hall with the Pantomime, Oh yes we are!

We go behind the scenes at panto get-in - that magical moment when a theatre transforms almost overnight. We chat to the director, members of the cast, including some of the children involved, and of course the pantomime cow!

On Monday 2 March, the Mayor, Councillor Chris Paige, will honour four or five individuals for their service to Petersfield, at the Annual Town Meeting. 

Organisations are asked to nominate one of their volunteers with some words about why.

The Mayor told Mike Waddington about the awards and extending recognition to those who give their time to services for the people of Petersfield.

Those honoured will be presented with a medallion (pictured).

Nominations, with a brief explanation about why the person should be honoured, need to be in by the end of January.

They can be dropped off at the Town Hall, through the Council's Facebook pages or by email to admin@petersfield-tc.gov.uk
