Presenting the certificate, Mr Dewar said:

“Since the formation of Driffield’s AFVBC in 2019, many companies have stepped forward and offered their support.

“Soanes Poultry here in the Middleton was one of the first and their regular donations of prizes to our monthly raffles have been much appreciated in both substance and taste!

“On behalf of all of our members, it gives me great pleasure to recognise this support of veterans of our armed forces and blue light services by asking Nigel Upson and Soanes to accept this small token of our appreciation.”

Receiving the award, Mr Upson said:

“As a company, we pride ourselves on supporting local community groups from foodbanks to sports teams. We’re particularly proud to support the work of Ian and his team at Driffield AFVBC as we owe the beneficiaries of these groups a huge debt of gratitude. We look forward to supporting them to deliver this vital service for future servicemen and women.”
