Woo! It's the weekend

Happy Friday

The weekend is nearly here and we have rounded up some of the most positive stories of the week.

There have been a few changes in the make-up of the city council with a new leader and a new mayor announced.

A Post Office manager is celebrating 50 years working across Worcestershire - they are going to be a night out in her honour.

And just in case it escaped your notice - the northern lights were visible over Worcestershire (and the rest of the UK) last weekend.
