Great Service to Stratford Community

The club recently acknowledged longstanding service to five members. Jack Jaffares - 55 years service, Delia Smith, Reg Lewis and Peter Death - all 25 years service and Judy Pryce - 20 years service.

This is an outstanding contribution in supporting their local community and what makes the club so highly respected.
