In pictures: Mid Ulster Council staff recognised for achievements and long service

Mid Ulster District Council recently held a Staff Recognition event at the Burnavon Theatre, Cookstown, to recognise staff members for their achievements and celebrate long service of up to 40 plus years.

Staff members who have recently completed a new qualification, spearheaded or contributed to successful projects that have led to nationally recognised awards, or have dedicated 30 years or more to serving our communities within our legacy and current Councils, or within Planning, were recognised at the event.

Chair of the Council, Councillor Dominic Molloy said he was struck by just how many staff had put in such an effort to “go that extra mile.”

He said: “One of the most striking stats from today is that, for those long service awards we’re presenting, when you add up the number of years served by everyone altogether it amounts to some two thousand, seven hundred years given in total to making sure we are delivering for our residents."
