I WISH to publicly thank all those who were involved with my Devon County Council Civic Service in Okehampton on Sunday March 20. The day was a great success, and a great credit to Okehampton.

Everyone at Fairplace Church worked so hard to make the day a success, and the ministers from other churches in the area came and joined in for a wonderful Christians Together service, including the magnificent choir.

I had visitors from Dorset, Somerset, Devon, and many other places, and the day really showcased how in Okehampton we do things in style.

Everybody who attended commented on how good the day was, and I was so proud of everybody involved.
