Not strictly a High Sheriff event but important, this was the branch dinner of the Little March and District Royal British Legion held at Ledbury Rugby Club. Last yea’s dinner was snowed off so a lot of people came this year to a dinner where starvation was not going to be a problem. Indeed, much of the meat was auctioned off afterwards. The assembled company heard about the history and current activities of Controls Risks from Peter Plunkett, one of their first employees. A fair number of ex-serviceman go on to work for this company, especially from Herefordshire. Here is a link to their web-site. This was followed by a sophisticated entertainment (or perhaps not!) and an auction and raffle draw. A very useful sum of money was thus raised.
