Congreagation including Cllr Jeremy Oates, Mayor Beale and Chris Pincher
The Tamworth Society of Arts Exhibition this weekend at the Town Hall was praised by the Shadow Secretary of State for Culture Media and Sport, Jeremy Hunt MP.
The parliamentary front bencher toured the exhibition with members of Tamworths Conservative party including Mayor Beale and Council leader, Jeremy Oates.
The exhibition coincided with the 175 anniversary of Sir Robert Peels Tamworth Manifesto which launched the Conservative Party in 1834 when read from the window of the Town Hall.
Mr Hunt was on hand to honour the anniversary of the Tamworth Manifesto whilst viewing the exhibition and sharing a cup of tea with the organisers.
Mr Hunt, said;
“Tamworth is an historic town with links going back centuries. It also has a special place in the history of the Conservative Party because Robert Peel founded it here based on principles of free trade and help for ordinary working people. I am very pleased to visit and to find the community so vibrant.”
