Every year, the town Mayor can nominate a single or number of charities that they wish to support and raise money for over the 12 months that they are Mayor of Stone. The money is raised from street collections, civic services at St Michael’s Church in Stone and dinners, donations and various other sources.

The town mayor for 2013/14 is Cllr Jill Piggott – all the best to her for a great year in office!
