On April 29th 2011, my wife and I were invited to the Nottingham Arts Theatre by the Nottinghamshire Royal Society for the Blind, to a show of partially, and blind artists performing drama and also singing.

It was a wonderful show and we both thoroughly enjoyed the evening.

During the intervals, volunteers were invited onto the stage to receive awards for their efforts. I was invited to be presented with an award and a certificate for the 45 years I have been volunteering with the NRSB, I felt very humbled and also extremely proud to be receiving such an award.

On Saturday May 7th it was my honour to be invited by Nottingham City Council to a ceremony at Nottingham Castle to lay a wreath in memoriam of Albert Ball V.C. and all of the Nottingham and Nottinghamshire V.C.s.

The Lord Mayor of Nottingham Councillor Brian Grocock lead the day and also presented the wreath with myself in memory of these brave individuals.
