The award for July is given to Mrs Anne Hamill, from the Queen Street area of Lurgan.

Announcing the latest award, Carla said:

“Across Upper Bann we have people who just exemplify dedication, and go the extra mile whether that be in work, or in helping improve the community. I want to recognise the work these people are doing.

Mr award for July is presented to the amazing Mrs Anne Hamill. Anne is someone who should inspire us all to do more. She has worked over 51 years in the Health Service, namely Lurgan Hospital and is continuing to work well after the age of retirement. Her love for the job is there for all to see. She is a fantastic example to anyone starting out in the world of work, or in our amazing health service.

Anne’s is also very much committed to her family and has grandchildren and great grandchildren who also testify to her energy and dedication to them, alongside her commitment to work.

I am delighted to present Anne with her award, a beautiful brooch from Empire Poppy Store at Brownlow House, as a small token of appreciation for all she does.

If you know of someone in your community who deserves recognition for their commitment to community, please get in touch.”
