After a few short speeches, Catherine Hutchesson MP and Gus Thompson (FoSH President) presented awards to the members.

​

10 year recipients: Graeme Brettig, Helen Tassell, Chris Regan, Robin Cram, Lindy Taeuber & Milton and Jan Turner.

Justin Holder also presented a certificate to the FoSH group, accepted by Robyn Guy.

It was a beautiful sunny day and a wonderful chance for the members, old and new, to meet up with some of the people that have supported FoSH over the years; Duncan Mackenzie, Tony Magor, Justin Holder, Jen Pitman & Ann Prescott.

​

Well done!
