All of your volunteers work so hard and put so much effort into everything. It was a pleasure to meet and talk with them [volunteers]. Having said that, it must not be forgotten that everyone at ECL works tirelessly all year round. The enthusiasm exuded! You all deserve a pat on the back. Proud to be a part of it.

Councillor Jill Reeves
