Our team at the Mayor’s Great Exhibition
Branch committee members and our Reform UK councillors joined hundreds of businesses and guests at the Lincolnshire Showground for the Great Exhibition, opened by Reform UK Mayor of Greater Lincolnshire Dame Andrea Jenkyns.
On Wednesday 21 October 2026, members of the Reform UK Sleaford & North Hykeham branch committee and our Reform UK councillors attended the Great Exhibition of Greater Lincolnshire, launched by our Reform UK Mayor, Dame Andrea Jenkyns.
Branch Chair Sam Wigley and Treasurer Robin McCallum were there, along with Lincolnshire County Councillors Alan Woodruff, Steve Clegg and David East.
Showcasing Greater Lincolnshire
Held at the Epic Centre on the Lincolnshire Showground, the exhibition brought together businesses, innovators and international delegations to show what our county does best. The Mayor opened the day by arriving on the autonomous bus pictured above, one of many examples of the technology on display.
The exhibition was built around three themes that matter to everyone in North Kesteven:
Why it matters here
Farming, energy and defence are woven into life across Sleaford & North Hykeham, from the family farms around our villages to RAF Cranwell and RAF Waddington on our doorstep. It was good to see Greater Lincolnshire putting its strengths on the national stage, and to talk with the people creating jobs and investment here.
It was also a reminder of the difference a Reform UK Mayor is already making: backing Lincolnshire businesses, bringing investors to the county and making the case for our food producers and our countryside.
Thank you
Thank you to Dame Andrea and her team for a superb day, and to our councillors and committee members for giving up their time to fly the flag for Reform UK Sleaford & North Hykeham.
