Chairman's Announcements

Minutes:

The Chairman reminded Members of the award he instigated in 2015 for Demonstrating Pride in Your Work, something he was passionate about as it was important to recognise when an individual was particularly diligent and effective in what they did.

 

The Chairman commented that the nominations received for this year’s winner highlighted their dedication, professionalism and commitment to their work, in particular the repairs to the Hythe Quay.  As part of their day to day role they ensured the river stayed safe for all users.  The Chairman announced that the winner was Mr Nigel Harmer, River Baliff and he asked Members to join him in congratulating him.  A small presentation was also made by the Chairman at this time to Mr Harmer who responded, thanking the Chairman and Members for the award.
