Our service on Sunday 25 Jan included a chance to show our appreciation for the long service of Graham Warburton as a member of the Salvation Army. After many years, Graham has recently retired from selling the War Cry magazine outside Corbens Estate Agency. Divisional Area Officer Major Denise Cooper presented him with a long-service certificate and Swanage Town Mayer Cllr Mike Bonfield, John Corben from Corbens Estate Agency and Nigel Dragon from Swanage Salvation Army were amongst those paying tribute to the many ways he supported the S.A. and the community.
