Trowbridge Poppy Appeal said a formal thank you to the team from Forrester Sylvester Mackett solicitors, when organisers Rick and Lyn Owen presented the firm with a Corporate Award recognising its enormous contribution over 20 years in ensuring the security and safety of volunteer staff during Poppy Appeal each year.
Senior partner Nigel Godsiffe, with Sharon Gilbert and Freya Danks, is pictured accepting the award. Mr Owen thanked them, saying: “It is so important that our volunteers feel safe when they deal with donations, and the safe and secure environment that Forrester Sylvester Mackett have provided us with, for so many years, is a real blessing. The friendly help we receive each year really does reinforce how the Poppy Appeal belongs to the town, the business and civic leaders and the people who do so much to make it the success it is.”
