We were joined on the night by the Mayor and Mayoress of Dudley, Councillor Steve Waltho and his wife Jayne. Also in the audience was Councillor Melvyn Mottram A packed audience were privileged to witness a wide range of entertainment which included singing and dancing. For the first time the band performed during the evening for which they received a tremendous round of applause. The awards were distributed at the break. The best band person chosen by their fellow piers was jointly awarded to Brooke and Mitch. The best band person chosen by the staff was awarded to Freya, and after an excellent citation, the president’s award was won by Kate. They were given by the Mayor and Mayoress. We are now working on our 2016 programme, The Phantom of The Opera, which we are all excited about and looking forward to performing both in our local community and in competition representing Coseley, the Borough of Dudley and The Black Country with great pride We would like to pay a big thank you to the Mayor and Mayoress for taking the time out and spending it with us, to Councillor Mottram, to Gerry and the staff of Hurst Hill Labour Club and to all who took part throughout the evening for making it possible.
