Thank you Jennifer Marlborough!

LHNCC wishes to express its thanks and gratitude to Jennifer Marlborough, who stepped down in retirement from the CC at last night’s AGM, for all her hard work and dedication to making Leith and Newhaven better places to live.

Jennifer has acted as Secretary and Planning convenor for 8 years, roles which have required a great deal of effort and skill, and all in a voluntary capacity. She will be sadly missed on the Council but we know that she will still be supporting causes close to her heart, particularly on heritage matters.

Here is Jennifer with her bouquet of flowers and enjoying a well-earned pint of local ale in Teuchters!

Good luck Jennifer and keep in touch!
