BOB PETERS AND JOHN CORNWELL

That this House congratulates Councillor Bob Peters, who this month clocks up 50 years' unbroken service to the community as an elected member on Ringmer Parish Council, many as Chairman; also congratulates Councillor John Cornwell who still serves on Barcombe Parish Council, having first been elected to that authority in May 1956; notes that both individuals, who serve as independents, have over the years contributed a huge amount to the well-being of their parishes, to the wider Lewes District on which Council both have also served, particularly to the farming community; and wishes them continuing success.
