Horley Town Councillors’ Christmas Hospitality 2024
On Saturday, 7 December, Horley Town Council held its annual Councillors’ Christmas Hospitality at Horley Community Centre where the traditional Carol Service was also held and created a festive atmosphere for everyone present. Joyful singing during the proceedings added to the meaningful Christmas messages received from the Churches of Horley. Local residents and visitors were made welcome and joined in to celebrate the season and share in the joy of Christmas.
The councillors created a welcoming scene with an array of homemade refreshments and added a personal and heartfelt touch to the event, making it even more special for all those in attendance.
The event also combined the presentation of a Good Citizen Award to local hero, Laurence Rowe, for his remarkable bravery and quick thinking during a neighbourhood fire incident, where his actions prevented significant damage and potentially saved lives.
Council Chairman, Cllr Martin Saunders was delighted to present this award to Laurence and commented "The council is thrilled to recognise such a well-deserving recipient. Laurence is a fantastic example of community spirit, and we would welcome the opportunity to celebrate more residents who selflessly contribute to the Horley community."
