Dumfries Provost Tracey Little Resigns

Thank you to everyone who has supported me in this position. It has been an absolute joy and privilege to be ambassador of my hometown.

I hope my time as Provost has helped to highlight the wonders and beauty that is Dumfries and encouraged more residents and visitors to love it as much as I do. I may not be Provost anymore but I will never stop championing all that is Dumfries.

Finally… to Dumfries, the town that raised me, thank you for all that you gave me – and you gave generously.”
