The funeral took place today at All Saints Church, Wellington, of Margaret Hobbs, former Borough and Wellington town councillor.
Margaret worked hard for the community for many years, not only as a councillor but as a founder member of the League of Friends at the Princess Royal hospital.
She was the first Mayor of Wellington in 1988 after the Parish Council was created after the demise of the Urban and Rural councils, when the Telford and Wrekin Council was created.
Margaret Hobbs was well known and respected in Wellington, and a lifelong Conservative supporter, and will be sadly missed.
