Burnham-On-Sea Community Centre has this week thanked its retiring Chairman for three decades of dedicated voluntary work in running the facilities.
Ken Hindle stepped down from the Chairman’s position of Burnham & Highbridge Community Association on Thursday (May 9th) during the charity’s annual general meeting.
The association’s trustees formally thanked Ken for his work and voted for him to become the centre’s new President.
New Chairman David Norton said: “Ken has been such an important person here for many years and the centre would not be here if it weren’t for all his work over the years.”
“A big thank you goes to Ken for all his work. We are very pleased he’s taken on the role of President to continue his involvement with the centre without the worry of running it.”
Ken thanked David and the trustess for their kind words and said he looks forward to continuing his involvement with the centre in his new role.
As President, Ken will act as the Chair of the Board of Trustees and will be the principal officer designated with maintaining the ethos and values of the Association. Additionally, he will serve as the lead ambassador for the Association.
Burnham & Highbridge Community Association is a registered charity responsible for running Burnham Community Centre in Berrow Road.
