Mansfield Inner Wheel Club Meeting, held at Portland College on November 8th 2017 was a very special memorable occasion, attended by 126 Inner Wheel members, Rotarians, friends and guests.
Past District Chairman Yvonne Neville and her brother-in-law Rotarian Paul Bacon gave a fascinating illustrated talk on the life of Albert Ball, a distant cousin of Yvonne and her sister Christine.

He was awarded three Distinguished Service Orders: the Military Cross and the Victoria Cross posthumously. His family relatives were recently invited to a Memorial Service in France and the Royal Albert Hall to mark the 100th Anniversary of his death.
