After Morning Worship on Sunday 21st November 2021 the Churchwardens, Graham Webb and John Ray presented Jill Marshall with a card and a picture of Broughton Church as a memento, and to thank her, for all the work she has done over the past almost fifty years for the church and for the parish. Jill did a lengthy spell as church Treasurer, served on the PCC and was also a sidesman. She was on the Parish Council, a member of the WI and an invaluable helper at church and village social functions. Over the years she has been a faithful and dedicated member of the congregation. We wished her every happiness in her move to Devon to be near family.
At the Remembrance Service on 14th November 2021 Margaret Webb was presented with a certificate by the chairman of the St Ives branch of the Royal British Legion, Mike Robertson, for her stalwart work and support for the RBL over the last fifty years.
