John Teare (right)       Freeman of Peel

John Teare has been awarded Freeman of Peel.  The honour was in recognition of his 41 years supporting the Royal National Lifeboat Institute charity in Peel. He was presented with an illuminated address by the Chairman of Peel Town Commissioners at Peel Golf Club on Friday 21 November.

John said one of the main advantages of becoming a Freeman seems to be that he now has the right to drive a flock of sheep up Michael Street. He hasn’t yet said when he intends to exercise this new right but sponsored sheep driving through Peel could be a great new method of fundraising.
