Spring Concert 2012
Press Review by Philip R Buttall
A National Honour for John Railton
John Railton has been awarded an MBE in the January 2012 Honours List.
As long ago as 2008 Geoffrey Histed as co-ordinator wrote to a number of friends and former colleagues of John Railton to enlist their support in order to try to get his very special life and career recognised in the national honours system. Letters of support from some 80 recipiants helped Geoffrey then and in the intervening period to make a very full and wide ranging submission/nomination.
Geoffrey would like to thank everyone who wrote in support of the nomination and also Rosemary Roscoe and Cath Collins who greatly helped and encouraged him personally in the long and involved process. We are also grateful for the interest and support of Dr Sarah Wollaston, MP for Totnes.
David Ewins, chairman of the Dartington Community Choir, would like to offer congratulations on behalf of the whole Community Choir.
John is truly delighted and if you want to contact John direct to congratulate him, he has given his permission to give you all his contact details which are as follows:
