Popular local councillor Lynne Featherstone has been picked out by the Daily Mail newspaper for an award recognising her hard work for the community in Haringey.

The award is part of the Daily Mail’s “Golden Jubilee Unsung Heroes” award to mark the Golden Jubilee. Following her nomination by a Haringey resident, Lynne Featherstone was given an “award of merit” for her “unstinting work” in the local community.

Commenting on the award, Ms Featherstone said:

“It was a bolt from the blue, quite unexpected, especially as it has come from the Daily Mail – not known for their enthusiastic support for Liberal Democrat campaigns!

“However, it is nice to be appreciated, and I am very pleased to accept such a plaudit.”
