Carol service at Westminster Abbey Anne Gilley, Co-op Member Pioneer, was invited to attend a carol service in the Abbey by Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge on December 8 for recognition of the incredible work she does for her community. She had to nominate someone from the community to accompany her and she chose Crish Davies for the great work she had done during the two lockdowns. Anne said that her job as Co-op Member Pioneer is only possible thanks to the fantastic support she has from the community. Royal fans will be able to watch the Christmas concert when it is televised by ITV on Christmas Eve at 7.30pm.
