Memories were shared via photos and memorabilia covering the last 50 years of the town council’s achievements and contributions to town life, and many more memories were shared amongst the attendees.

The town council was founded in 1974 under the Local Government Act.

At the event the Mayor of Warwick, Cllr Dave Skinner, said: “Community has always been at the heart of everything the town council does, and we have supported and delivered many events and projects over the years which have contributed to the strength and spirit of our community.

"As we look forward to the next 50 years, we will continue to innovate, collaborate, and adapt, ensuring that our wonderful town thrives for generations to come.”
