In his year as the Chairman of Lichfield District Council, Councillor Ken Humphreys raised £2,400 for charity.
The former chairman, who was joined by his wife Maureen, was on hand at District Council House to present cheques of £1,200 to both Simon Price, Patron of the We Love Lichfield Fund, and Jo Bailey, Fundraising Manager for Midlands Air Ambulance.
Councillor Ken Humphreys, Chairman of Lichfield District Council from May 2012 to May 2013, said: "I would like to thank everyone who attended my charity events and gave so generously. I thoroughly enjoyed my year as Chairman, and one of the many highlights was raising money for two important charities."
Fundraising events included hosting a charity dinner dance and a charity night. Simon Price, Patron of the We Love Lichfield Fund, commented: "The beauty of giving to the We Love Lichfield Fund is that it enables community and voluntary groups to access a pot of vital funding. To be able to offer these grants in a time of economic uncertainty is fantastic and we'd like to thank Councillor Humphreys for his support over the past year."
