Congratulations to our Chairman John Richards who has now officially received his Freedom of the City award at a special lunch held at Wolverhampton’s Civic Centre.

Hosted by the Mayor, Councillor Linda Leach, John was joined by close family and friends and other civic dignitaries at the event at which he delivered a speech outlining his pride at being honoured in his adopted home city.

“This is absolutely fantastic,” said John

“It’s an honour and a privilege. 

“It’s something that is beyond anybody’s wildest dreams to get this sort of recognition from the city where you’ve lived for all this time.”
