GREAT YEAR AT AN END


Brigg Town Mayor Coun Michael Doherty, in his final year as the town's first citizen, looked back on a 'fantastic year' before handing over to Coun Mike Campion.
Coun Doherty (pictured) said he had been 'kept on the straight and narrow' by his wife Pat (Mayoress).
He also paid tribute to the support offered by town clerk Jeanette Woollard, her assistant Allison Hannath and chaplain, Fr Owain Mitchell.
Coun Campion paid tribute to the hard work of the retiring Town Mayor and Mayoress, and their son, Matthew, 'all of whom were excellent'.
He said of Coun Doherty: "His enthusiasm shone through - he reached all age groups. He was a shining example to us all."
Read about new Town Mayor Coun Mike Campion's plans for the year ahead, and his hopes for Brigg as a town, in an exclusive interview in the Brigg Extra page in today's Scunthorpe Telegraph.
