The Parish Council, on behalf of the communities of Laneham and Church Laneham, would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the dedication and commitment of Fred Clark and Brenda Barber who have served continuously on Laneham Parish Council for the last 4 decades.
Fred and Brenda recently stood down from their Vice-Chair and Parish Councillor roles on 10th May 2010 after 41 and 38 years service. Both Fred and Brenda recall many heated debates over planning issues along with successes like the re-build of the Bus Stop on Dunham Road, the Trentside Meadow recreation project and “Best Kept Village’ awards.
Brenda moved to Church Laneham in 1954 and is very protective of the hamlet she lives in and loves (and no doubt will remain so, we feel sure we haven’t heard the last of Brenda yet!).
Fred was born and bred in Laneham; a champion of free speech and dedicated correspondent, Fred served as Chairman for a continuous period of 15 years and Vice Chair for 25 years, and we take comfort in the fact that Fred will continue to take an interest for many years to come.
We hope that Fred and Brenda will enjoy their additional leisure time and that they will continue to participate and be valued members of our community.
Thank you Fred and Brenda.
Laneham Parish Council
