For half a century Rex Britton has served Oldland Village Club. He’s been a club member, committee member, vice chair and finally chairman.
This remarkable effort was highlighted with a presentation to Rex on New Year’s Eve.
A spokeperson said: “Rex has stood at the heart of our social club—steady, committed, and always ready with advice. Fifty years is more than a milestone; it is a legacy. And we celebrate not just the time that has passed, but the extraordinary impact Rex has had on the club.
“ From the early days of the club’s growth to the busy, thriving community we enjoy today, Rex has been a constant source of support.
“His dedication hasn’t just kept things running smoothly—it has created a place where friendships flourish, memories are made, and everyone feels they belong. His genuine care for the club and its people are qualities we admire.
“On behalf of every member, past and present, we want to say thank you, Rex. Thank you for your loyalty to the club and the countless hours you’ve given without ever asking for recognition.
“Here’s to you, Rex. Congratulations!”
