After 25 years as Secretary of Enderby Village Institute, Brian Gillespie retired at the Institute’s Annual General Meeting on the 10th September.

EYE Contributor Brian Screaton tells us that  Brian has been associated with the building for over forty years.

In grateful recognition of Brian’s years of dedicated service he was presented with a commemorative silver plate by Chairman Dave Stanley.

When not taking the minutes of Institute meetings or looking after the building, Brian has also been a volunteer at the Abbey Pumping Station in Leicester for forty years, and is currently membership secretary and vice-chairman.
