Town Award Presentation - Roy Martin
We are delighted to announce that a former member of staff at Horley Town Council, Roy Martin, is a proud recipient of a prestigious Town Award this year. Roy was a valued member of the Town Council’s staff for over 30 years, until in 2017, at the age of 95 years, he decided he must retire! During Roy's time at the Town Council, he gave dedicated service as parks warden by ensuring the grounds were maintained to the highest standard. His cheerful and friendly attitude to local residents was well known. He played a key role in ensuring that the prestigious Memorial Gardens were well kept, as endorsed regularly by the South and South East in Bloom judging panel. Roy gave much support to the administrative team at the Town Council offices too. He would take pride in his work and was always willing and helpful. He would often be seen at Town Council events and other community engagements, welcoming residents and visitors. The Councillors and staff are immensely grateful to Roy for his dedication and support, which always went far above and beyond the call of duty. The Town Award was presented to Roy for his distinguished and exceptional service to Horley and we all wish him well in his retirement.
