“Dear secretary/chair

Please note the invitation to you and your association below about a very exciting upcoming event. It is necessary to register as detailed.

We look forward to as many as possible attending. Be careful to respond as below, not to me though we will be sending reminders.

Dear Committee member

I am writing to let you know about an event coming up that I would like to get as many local people involved in as possible.

For the first time, we’re going to be holding a Leader’s Public Question Time, where the public can hold myself and the cabinet directly to account.

The event will be taking place at 6.30pm on 22 October at City Hall, the home of the Greater London Authority in SE1. Jumoké Fashola, award-winning radio and television broadcaster, famed jazz singer and Southwark resident will chair the debate and keep the questions and answers moving.

I am very excited for this opportunity for Southwark residents to put questions directly to me about the issues that really matter to them. I’m looking forward to a challenging, exciting discussion that I hope will give residents a different type of forum to make their views heWe expect this to be a very popular event so I wanted to offer you the chance to register your interest in attending. Email councilnews@southwark.gov.uk to do so. You can also send in your questions beforehand to this same address or send questions via twitter using the hashtag #askpeterjohn to @lb_southwark

More details can be found at http://www.southwark.gov.uk/askpeterjohn

Please do also share with your networks, as we want to give all our residents the chance to attend.

Yours sincerely
Cllr Peter John
Leader of Southwark Council”
