Barnsley Civic Trust has been very saddened by the death of its Chairman, John Love.
John was a hardworking and dedicated member of the Trust and was very fond of his home town.
He passed away peacefully on February 26th.
John has chaired the Trust since Covid times and helped to get it going again after it temporarily ceased to operate.
John had served on the Trust’s Executive Committee for many years before the pandemic and was responsible, among other things, for the success of its Blue Plaques scheme.
