Renewal of Pledge of Friendship with Cormeilles-en-Parisis

The weekend of 8-10 March 2024 sees the Renewal of the Pledge between Ware and Cormeilles. The first Pledge of Friendship between the two towns was signed in Cormeilles in 2001.

Seven members of the Town Twinning Association will be attending plus the Town Mayor, Councillor Tom Day, accompanied by five other Town Councillors, along with Terry Philpott the Town Clerk and Kerry Mavis, the Priory Operations Manager.

We are advised that a full weekend is planned with some surprises!

An exciting extra dimension to the weekend is that four of the above (the Mayor, Cllr Graeme Hill, the Town Clerk and Kerry Mavis) will be cycling back to Ware from Cormeilles on Sunday with an overnight stop en-route.

A report of the weekend plus photos will follow.

Ros Standley

Some of you will have already heard this sad news – I am sorry to have to report that Roz died yesterday of a heart attack.  As you know, Ros was our current Vice Chairman and will be greatly missed.

She was also a past Town Mayor and a member of East Herts District Council. 

She was very well known in the town and involved with several local organisations including Age Concern of which she was the current President. Ros was a former member of the Friends of Ware Priory committee representing the Priory Trustees.
