Founder Freeman Ruby Sayed (pictured with the Clerk) has been elected as one of 10 Common Councilmen in the Ward of Farringdon Without. This is the first time that Ruby has stood as a candidate and she is delighted to have been returned in a landslide victory for candidates on the Temple and Farringdon Together ticket.
Freeman John Chapman has been re-elected as one of 3 Common Councilmen in the Ward of Langbourn. An Independent candidate, John has been a Common Councilman for over a decade, and is Deputy for the Ward.
Congratulations to both Ruby and John, and the Guild wishes them every success in their roles.
