"The speeches from both the Mayor and Cllr Hooper were truly captivating, highlighting the remarkable achievements that had been made. Their words were not only significant but also inspiring, emphasising the importance of the community's collective effort.

"We are exceptionally thankful for this honour. We try to leave no stone unturned in pursuit of our two main objectives, which is to support local charities and community groups, and to raise the profile of Freemasonry within the local Community.
