Tributes paid to Ludlow councillor

Tributes are being paid to a Ludlow councillor who passed away suddenly on Tuesday.

Councillor Sean O'Neill was a valued member of the Town Council since joining in June 2017.

During his two terms in office, he played an active part in the town’s civic life.

He held the post of Vice Chair of Policy and Finance and Committee while serving as a Councillor.  He also supported the work of Representational Committee, Services Committee, and Climate Action Sub Committee.  His commitment to the Council did not waiver during recent periods of ill-health

Mayor of Ludlow, Councillor Glenn Ginger said, "The whole Council is deeply saddened by the passing of Councillor O’Neill.  Sean was a great supporter of the Mayor’s Charity events.  He selflessly gave his time to organise excellent pub quizzes.  I and other Mayors are very grateful to him for his support".

In the coming days, Ludlow Town Council will honour the service of Councillor O'Neill. The town flag will be flown at half-mast and Councillors will do all they can to support his family at this difficult time.
