at a special tea party to mark the 20th anniversary of the awards
on Monday afternoon (February 18th).
The

also saw the unveiling of a brand new Honours Board by Mayor Pauline
Pollard and Deputy Mayor Neville Jones which lists the names of
every winner from the last 20 years.

the names of all Civic Award winners which was shown for the first
time at the Mayor's Civic Service last September and will be hung
in the council offices in Jaycroft Road.

Pollard and Deputy Mayor Neville Jones.
