Quality and Experience Recognised

Lord Mayor's Blog 34
I am very pleased to announce that the Rotary Foundation of Rotary International recently nominated the senior officer in the Lord Mayor’s Parlour, Cathy Dukes, a Paul Harris Fellow.
In Rotary’s words this was: “In appreciation of tangible and significant assistance given for the furtherance of better understanding and friendly relations among peoples of the world.”
The words are well chosen and speak volumes of the quality of Cathy’s work and the value of the civic function of Councils in contact as we are with all manner of bodies, agencies and individuals of distinction.
The Paul Harris fellowship is the highest award that is made by Rotary and no greater accolade of the value placed by an external body on the work that Cathy has done over the years supported by the staff of the Parlour.
There is no substitute for experience, an attribute that should always be at the top of the list in any organisation of quality. Congratulations Cathy and thank you for your irreplaceable work!
