The Mayor joined Councillors and local schoolchildren at Haworth Art Gallery on 17th September, to mark the Queen becoming the country’s longest serving monarch on 9th September.
This landmark day, when Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II became the longest reigning monarch in British history, was marked by a tree planting ceremony in her honour at Haworth Art Gallery.
Local people also have the chance to pay personal tributes, by signing one of the commemorative books which are at Haworth Art Gallery and the Town Hall, which will then be sent to the Queen at Christmas.
The Mayor, Cllr Marlene Haworth, said; “Reaching this milestone is a remarkable achievement and it was wonderful to be able to pay tribute to Her Majesty the Queen, for her loyal and dignified service over all these years. I want to say a massive thank you to all the children and teachers who joined us at the event and made it so special. I really enjoyed meeting them all, they were absolutely brilliant, and each and every pupil was a real credit to their school. Also don’t miss your chance to pay your own personal tribute by signing one of the commemorative books at Haworth Art Gallery or the Town Hall, which will be there until just before Christmas, when we’ll send them to the Queen.”
