Lord-Mayors-Biography.Pdf LEEDS CITY COUNCIL THE LORD MAYOR OF LEEDS AND THE LADY MAYORESS 2018 - 2019 COUNCILLOR GRAHAM LATTY AND COUNCILLOR PAT LATTY COUNCILLOR GRAHAM LATTY Councillor Graham Latty was born in Leeds, however he spent his early years in Blackpool where he and his mother lived with his grandparents whilst his father was away in India serving in the army during the war. On his return to Leeds he attended Talbot Road County Primary then moved onto Roundhay School followed by four years at Leeds College of Art where he had aspirations to become a teacher. A stint of National Service in the RAF followed, during which he was based on Christmas Island and witnessed two A-Bombs and two H-Bombs being tested. He taught art on the side which convinced him that teaching was not the career for him. After being demobbed and returning home, he started work as a representative with Mercantile Credit and a working life in and associated with finance followed. He had a four year hiatus from the world of finance during which time he became a publican, unfortunately this was not a successful venture. He then moved into the role of Agent to Pudsey Constituency, Giles Shaw MP, which gave him a taste for politics and after several attempts of standing for election he was finally elected to Council in 2000. The eighteen years on Council have been among the happiest and most fulfilling of his long life, made even better after being joined on Council by Pat in 2010. During his political career Graham has been Deputy Conservative Group Whip and approximately five years ago became Chief Opposition Whip, a role he has thoroughly enjoyed. Other political interests have included Health and Adult Social Care and first and foremost, Planning. Graham met and married Pat in 1979, which he says is the best move he ever made! They have five children between them and fifteen grandchildren. They have a narrowboat moored near Rugby which they like to escape to when they have any spare time, which is not as often as they would like. Please note: Graham is uncomfortable visiting tall buildings and is not able to attend events that are held on the 5th floor or higher. COUNCILLOR PAT LATTY Councillor Pat Latty was born in Harrogate where she attended St Peters Primary and Secondary schools. She trained at Seacroft Hospital where she attained registration as a Sick Children’s Nurse and then worked at hospitals in Leeds and Harrogate. Pat’s nursing career came to a halt after she got married and then motherhood became her focus while she concentrated on raising her three children. She later took a part time job in the White Hart in Pool-in-Wharfedale, a pub which Graham used to frequent occasionally after work, this is where Graham and Pat met and the rest is, as they say, history. After meeting and marrying Graham, Pat started work again and spent 22 years with Airedale International Air Conditioning in Rawdon where she ended up controlling the sales ledger. Answering the phone for Graham sparked her interest in Council and in 2010 she stood for election and achieved one of the biggest majorities ever seen in Guiseley & Rawdon. Pat attends St Oswald’s Parish Church in Guiseley. She is very excited about taking on the role of Lady Mayoress and looks forward to partnering Graham in what they hope will be a wonderful year. Dietary requirements: The Lady Mayoress has diabetes and does not eat desserts but would welcome a fruit salad as an alternative sweet course if applicable. LORD MAYOR’S CHARITY APPEAL – 2018 - 2019 The Lord Mayor has chosen St Gemma’s Hospice as his Chosen Charity for 2018 - 2019. St Gemma’s Hospice has worked together with the community of Leeds for 40 years, to ensure that when local people face the end of life, it can be pain-free, dignified and peaceful. It is a privilege to be chosen as the Lord Mayor’s charity for 2018 - 2019. St Gemma’s provides care to patients living with all kinds of incurable illnesses including cancer, heart disease, lung disease and neurological diseases. Care is provided in a variety of ways. Our In-Patient Unit is open 365 day a year, 24 hours a day and is where patients with complex and immediate need, come for pain and symptom control. Patients who are able to receive treatment at home are visited by our dedicated team of Community Nurse Specialists and patients who need a lower level of support can attend Day Services to receive advice from medical staff, complimentary therapies and spend time with others going through a similar experience. Our dedicated team of doctors, nurses and support staff, take an individualised approach to each and every patient, ensuring their care is tailored to their needs. We always aim to reduce a patient’s pain and symptoms as much as possible and beyond that we look after their emotional and spiritual wellbeing too, respecting all faiths and cultures. Along with caring for our patients, vital support is also offered to a patient’s family and friends both during the patient’s illness and after death via our bereavement support service which helps adults and children come to terms with the loss of a loved one. At St Gemma’s, we aim to make every day a patient has left, as comfortable and enjoyable as it can be. We are only able to provide all of this crucial care and support, thanks to the continued generosity of the people of Leeds who support us in so many wonderful ways.

The proper description for the purpose of printed matter is either: “The Right Worshipful the Lord Mayor of Leeds, (Councillor Graham Latty)” or “The Lord Mayor of Leeds, (Councillor Graham Latty)” and when the Lady Mayoress is present: “The Lord Mayor of Leeds and the Lady Mayoress (Councillor Graham Latty and Councillor Pat Latty)” The correct mode of address is: “My Lord Mayor” and he is referred to as “The Lord Mayor” Precedence Section 3(4) of the Local Government Act 1972 specifically provides that the Lord Mayor shall have precedence in the district, but not so as to prejudicially affect Her Majesty’s royal prerogative. Within the City of Leeds, therefore, the Lord Mayor must be given precedence over all except Her Majesty The Queen, members of the Royal Family (ie Princes, Princesses, Dukes and Duchesses of the Blood Royal, styled “His (Her) Royal Highness”) and Her Majesty’s representatives when acting, in their official capacities and directly representing the Crown (viz. Her Majesty’s Lord-Lieutenant for the County of West Yorkshire). Accordingly, the place reserved for the Lord Mayor must be on the immediate right of the Chairman or other person presiding at any occasion except when one of the persons to whom the Lord Mayor yields precedence is present. The Lord Mayor is normally accompanied by the Sergeant-at-Mace or an Attendant, from whom advice on matters of protocol may be sought. HISTORICAL NOTES By the first charter of Incorporation granted to the Burgesses by King Charles I in 1626, “The Borough of Leedes in the County of York” was constituted and the corporate body was styled “The Alderman and Burgesses of the Borough of Leedes in the County of York”. The Council consisted of one Alderman, nine Principal Burgesses and twenty Assistants and the Charter named Sir John Savile as the first Alderman. The use of owls as supporters and crest in the Armorial Bearings of the City is a compliment to him, there being three owls in his personal coat of arms. Thirty five Aldermen succeeded Sir John Savile until the second Charter, granted by King Charles II in 1661, gave Leeds its first Mayor. The corporate body was then styled “The Mayor, Aldermen and Burgesses of the Borough of Leedes in the County of York” and the Council consisted of a Mayor, twelve Aldermen and twenty four Assistants. Thomas Danby was named in the Charter as the first Mayor and he, too, is honoured in the City’s Armorial Bearings, the three mullets argent on a chief sable (three silver stars on a black band which appear at the top of the shield of the Leeds Arms) being taken from the Danby achievement. Leeds had 240 Mayors until 1897 when, in her Jubilee Year, Queen Victoria declared and ordained by Letters Patent that the First Citizen should be “styled, entitled and called ‘Lord Mayor of Leeds’ and be authorised and empowered to enjoy and use all the rights, privileges, pre-eminencies and advantages to such degree duly and of right belonging”.
