Carlisle CVS celebrated their centenary at a special event at Tullie
House on Wednesday 7 July starting at 6.00pm. Around 100 guests made up of past

celebration. Kevin Curley, Chief Executive of the National Association of CVS (NACVS)
was the guest speaker, the new Mayor of Carlisle Cllr. Ralph Aldersley will also
attend.
A commemorative booklet was
be launched at the event which has been researched by a small working group of
current Trustees. The booklet highlights key events and achievements of the
organisation over the last 100 years. A re-print of the original 1904 Annual
Report was also be distributed.
Lynne
Sneap, Chief Officer said
“ I am really pleased so
many past Trustees, Staff and Volunteers were able to join us at this special
event. It is an opportunity for Carlisle CVS to not only highlight its own
acheivements but also to thank some of the people who were instrumental in their
success. The booklet really demonstrates the tremendous impact of voluntary
activity in Carlisle in the last 100 years”.
Guests were able to view the
CVS centenary display in the Millenium Gallery at Tullie House and also enjoy a
buffet supper whist meeting with colleagues old and new.
