Bernard is absolutely right, I know of no councillor who worked as hard as George Slynn. I became involved in local politics in Great Harwood a long time ago and George was 'Mr Harwood' - he knew every inch of his ward and helped a huge number of people. He should also be remembered for his commitment to regenerating the Borough after tough times economically; he was instrumental in the transformation of what is now The Globe from a derelict site into modern offices. George was a true public servant.
