ON the evening of Tuesday, December 10, Julie Maddison was inducted into the Rotary Club of Crediton Boniface.

She was presented with her members badge by Rotary President Fred Oliver.

Julie was introduced to Rotary by membership secretary Sheila Ralph.

Julie was born and grew up in Exeter but has lived in Crediton since 1979 when she and her late husband Dave moved to the town to take up teaching posts at Queen Elizabeth's School.

She thinks of herself as a Kyrtonian these days.

Since retiring Julie has been involved in various volunteering work in the town and will be well known by many people. Rotary members were delighted to welcome Julie as a new member and ended the induction by standing up to toast her.
