The Mayor Chronicles
Welcome to a blog that will attempt to chronicle a year in the life of a Mayor of a London borough. We have kindly received co-operation from the Mayor of Harrow, Cllr Asad Omar, who will allow us access to some of the civic duties he is required to carry out in order for us to log the year ahead.

Mayor Launches Healthy Eating Cookbook
Pupils from schools across Harrow in north London have teamed up with children from a school in India to launch a healthy eating cookbook with a distinctly international flavour.
Using produce grown in their own school gardens, junior masterchefs from four Harrow schools and another in Kolkata competed to include their recipes in the culinary guide.
The Mayor of Harrow, Cllr Asad Omar, will taste a selection of the winning 23 dishes during a book launch at Canons High School on Wednesday 16th June. The easy-to-follow book features soups, curries and cakes, along with burritos and a Jamaican salmon dish, all cooked by pupils aged five to 13 years old.
The book launch celebrates the end of a British Council backed project to teach children about healthy eating, the environment and eco-awareness. Pupils from Canons High School , Stag Lane Middle, Stag Lane First and Glebe First & Middle school, all in Harrow , took part, along with children at Gokhale Memorial Girls' School in Kolkata.
