Tracey Robertson Honoured as Citizen of the Year by Lymington and Pennington Town Council
/Lymington and Pennington Town Council is delighted to announce that Tracey Robertson has been awarded the prestigious Citizen of the Year Award for her outstanding dedication and contributions to the community.
Tracey’s commitment to bringing people together and her tireless efforts in organising community initiatives have made a lasting impact on the town. Her most notable achievements include completing the Lymington Soldier project, a powerful tribute that has resonated deeply with residents. Tracey’s work has also been pivotal in the Royal British Legion’s (RBL) events, such as the RBL 100-year anniversary celebrations. These included military vehicles parading through the High Street, a special church service, and community festivities at the Lymington RBL with food, entertainment, and an open invitation to all.
Additionally, Tracey spearheaded a unique fancy-dress five-mile sponsored walk, visiting pubs throughout the town, raising vital funds for the Poppy Appeal. Her efforts have extended to St. Thomas Church, where for two consecutive years she has helped create a stunning display featuring a soldier covered in poppies. This project has become a symbol of unity, remembrance, and pride for the town.
