Following the October Court Meeting, we were delighted to admit four new Freemen together with mother and daughter Maureen and Claire Habbershaw as Liverymen of the Coopers' Company.
Please congratulate and welcome James Adams, Claire Seymour, Nick Dougan and Richard Plumb as they being their journey with the Coopers’ Company and also congratulate Maureen and Claire.
To celebrate the occasion, the new Freemen and Liverymen joined members of the Court and other guests to dine in Coopers’ Hall.
After dinner The Master presented two talented young people, Rebekah Cloake and Lewis Toomey-Wright, from Strode’s College with their indenture certificates and welcomed them to the Company as his apprentices. The Clerk demonstrated how the indentures are unique to the holder and cut to avoid any forgery when the apprenticeship is completed and the indentures presented to gain the Freedom of the City of London.
The Master's apprentices from Coopers’ Company & Coborn School are to be confirmed.
