As Mayor and Deputy, Councillor Aviet and Councillor Penn will also continue to raise funds for the Mayor's foundation.

Councillor Julie Aviet, Mayor of the Vale of Glamorgan, said: “It is an honour and a privilege to be able to represent the Vale of Glamorgan as Mayor.

“I am proud of our beautiful beaches, parks, countryside and our people in all their diversity.

“During my term in office, I hope to convey two messages: have pride in where you live and have empathy for others.”
