Long-time supporters celebrated
SOLID supporters of a Lutterworth charity were presented with awards for their faithful generosity.
The Lutterworth branch of the Royal British Legion congratulated the recipients on their dedication over many years, before presenting awards for outstanding support to the legion’s poppy appeal.
The awards recognised a combined service of more than 185 years support to the annual poppy appeal and were presented by Michael Perks, mayor of Lutterworth Town Council.
The accolades included a 45 Year bar for Dick Stilgoe, a 50 Year bar for Bob Champion, a 50 Year bar for Neville Robbins and a 40 Year bar for Janette Ackerley, with each receiving a certificate as well.
The branch meets on the second Tuesday of every month at the Lutterworth Club, with new members always welcome to join.
