Title: Civic Award for Melksham Railway Development Group Post by: Cynthia on March 12, 2014, 23:28:56 Hoorah! Some public recognition for the MRDG. A recipient of an "Enhancing Melksham" award ".......for their great achievement in improving the rail service from Melksham which will benefit commuters, shoppers and visitors to the town" (Melksham Independent News 13/03/14) Take a bow, guys! ;)

No alcohol licence so it should proceed with some degree of respectable decorum. That should keep out some members of this forum who like their little tipple !

Also feature in the picture with his award for all he does for the community in both Melksham and Westbury (though the award is for Melksham in this case) is our Phil.

Take a look at http://melksh.am/4218 and you'll see many of those others named. And it's good to see new names coming along too, mingling with and boosting those named who are still active.
