Expert Visitors: Community Heroes in Doncaster

This morning, we were very lucky to welcome more expert visitors to help us answer our guiding question:
“Not all heroes wear capes – How can I be a hero where I live?”

We were honoured to be joined by Ros Jones, the elected Mayor of Doncaster, Jackie Dudley, the Deputy Civic Mayor, and David Milnes, who is the Mace Bearer and official chauffeur to the Civic Mayor.

Our visitors spoke to us about their important roles in Doncaster and the ways they work to make a positive difference in our community. We learned all about the Mansion House — one of only a few remaining in the country — and discovered how special it is to have one right here in Doncaster!

Ros shared her CBE medal, which was incredible to see up close, and David gave us the chance to look at the official Mace, which was fascinating to learn about.

They also spoke about what inspires them in their roles and how proud they are to serve the people of Doncaster.

To say thank you for their time and the compassion they show every day towards our community, we were very proud to present them with one of our Community Champion Awards.

What an inspiring morning learning from real-life heroes who make Doncaster a better place to live!
