Mrs Vi Randle - September winner
This award was presented to Mrs Violet Randle who, for over 20 years, has run a small playgroup in the Gilbert Richards Centre in Earlsdon.
Her devotion to the children, many of whom are from less fortunate families, is exemplary. She provides the support which is needed and takes personal responsibility for the raising of the essential running costs.
Her reward is the gratitude of the parents, the children and, perhaps more poignantly, those former pupils who have now reached adulthood.
Such has been the impact upon their lives she is sometimes referred to as "my other mum".
