On Thursday last week, Shifnal Town Council had the privilege of commemorating Rev Chris Thorpe by awarding him the prestigious title of Honorary Freeman of the Town in recognition of his outstanding service and dedication to the community.

The ceremony was attended by Town Councillors, Council staff, and Chris’s family and friends, making it a truly special occasion. The service began with a few words from Cllr Mayor Paul Williamson, followed by a heartfelt tribute from Jenny Wynn, Vice Lord-Lieutenant and concluded with a few words from Chris himself, reflecting on his time serving the people of Shifnal.

It was a fitting celebration of someone who has made a lasting impact on our town.

Congratulations, Chris, on this well-deserved honour!
