HRH DUKE OF KENT PRESENTS KING'S AWARD FOR VOLUNTARY SERVICE

On a gloriously sunny and warm afternoon yesterday, HRH the Duke of Kent attended the Wimpy Park Community Group in Alloa to present formally the Crystal and Certificate signed by HM the King to Group Chair Fin Robertson having won the King's Award for Voluntary Service for the magnificent work the whole team has done in the transformation of the walled garden.

A site which had lain derelict for some years has been transformed into a safe, welcoming space for local residents of all ages with small football pitches and play equipment for children to immaculately laid out flower beds and an area for reflection and contemplation. HRH was introduced to the Earl of Mar & Kellie whose family had originally owned the site before its sale several decades ago to the local authority, as well as to members of the Wimpy Park Group and members of the users of the site.

Many thanks to Kayleigh Gregory of Iolair Photography for the images of a superb afternoon.

ALVA ACADEMY VOLUNTEER OF THE YEAR

The inaugural Lord-Lieutenant's Award for volunteering was presented last night by Vice Lord-Lieutenant John Spruce to Beth McDonald in a packed and very hot Hall at the Senior School Awards Evening.

Beth is an avid reader and author of published poems and has completed just shy of 100 hours of volunteering helping P1-P3 pupils to read as well as helping at Kid’s Clubs and at Tillicoultry Baptist Church. She also wrote and produced a recipe book to raise funds for Macmillan, a charity close to the hearts of many at Alva Academy.

Beth is pictured receiving her Certificate and prize from John Spruce.

ALLOA ACADEMY VOLUNTEERS OF THE YEAR

Deputy Lieutenant Craig Dunbar was delighted to attend Alloa Academy last night to present the Lord-Lieutenant's Certificates to the first recipients of the new Volunteer of the Year Award. He spoke briefly about the ethos of the award and the background of the two winners, Reece Graham (who was unfortunately not present due to being unwell) and Bobbie-Joe Taylor, both of whom have dedicated their time to activities at The Hive in Alloa and, as a result of which, they have both been offered part-time work there, demonstrating that volunteering is not just a positive end in itself but often a pathway to greater and better things.

CLACKMANANNSHIRE COMMUNITY CHAMPION 2025

At a Ceremony held earlier this evening in the Cochrane Hall in Alva, Lord-Lieutenant Johnny Stewart was delighted to present the Glencairn crystal to the 2025 Community Champion, June Anderson BEM of the Clackmannanshire Tenants & Residents Federation.

She has been a tireless advocate over many decades for the people of the County regarding all issues relating to housing and she was one of the first to react to the recent disaster which has affected the residents of Coalsnaughton. She has been recognised across the UK and it is entirely right that she has received this award on behalf of the people of Clackmannanshire

The photo shows June receiving the crystal from the Lord-Lieutenant. The other photo shows Johnny trying his luck at the indoor archery which was available for all to try, but perhaps he would benefit from some more practice!
