One of his final acts before departing to begin the next chapter in his life, our long-serving CEO Roger attended the Lord Mayor’s Gala Dinner 2022 at the Crowne Plaza Plymouth with his wife Gill.
Roger said, “Gill and I thoroughly enjoyed the Mayor’s Gala Dinner. I know the City of Plymouth is going to be well served by two outstanding people during the next year.”
Who are the two outstanding people Roger is referring to?
