On Friday we attended the Proud of Barnsley Awards 2024 to present the Ann Moffatt Memorial Award. The award was given to Ann's family in recognition of the support and dedication Ann gave to the VCSE sector in Barnsley.

In a video shown on the night Charlotte Williams, Trustee, Barnsley CVS, said "In Barnsley, reputation is everything, and Ann’s was untouchable. She supported hundreds of groups over the years, influencing thousands of individuals with her knowledge and dedication. What made Ann a true local hero was her reliability and respect for all."

Ann's granddaughter who attended on Friday to receive the award with her family wrote on Facebook "Her memory is cherished by more than just her family and that is such a precious gift".

We were honoured to be able to celebrate with Ann's family on Friday.

We would also like to say congratulations to all the other winners on the night. It was amazing to see all the incredible groups and members of the community being celebrated for their hard work!
