Award Ceremony

Loyalty and commitment in any organisation is essential. Teignbridge District Council owes a great deal to the dedication and expertise of it's staff and it was a pleasure for me to be asked to present some Long Service and Retirement Awards to people who have worked for Teignbridge for over 30 years. Many who had served for 25 years still intend to stay in harness and I believe that local authorities outside the large Metropolitan Boroughs have a distinct advantage when it comes to attracting and retaining personnel. Receiving their Awards were employees from the all important refuse collector through to middle and top management whose different skills have contributed to our collective success. Well done and thanks to everyone!
