The motion
That this House celebrates the 50th anniversary of the St Albans and District Talking Newspaper, a charity which records local newspapers to bring local news to the visually impaired in the district; notes that the organisation was originally founded in 1974 by two local residents, Ray and Meg Bousfield; further notes the success of the 50th anniversary celebrations held in August; highlights the positive difference the charity makes to help the visually impaired engage with their local community; underlines the hard work of many volunteers over the years and the positive impact on hundreds of local residents; and thanks them for their hard work and wishes the charity all the best for their future.
