Celebrating 50 years of Caldicot

Published on 6 November 2025 at 10:31

Lion Phil , Lion Nick , and Lion Alex from Chepstow & Caldicot Lions proudly joined the Caldicot Mayor’s Civic Event to mark the town’s 50th anniversary. They were joined by Ann Lewis, Elise Simes, and Karen Couchman, members of the Arts Society Monmouthshire and passionate Young Arts volunteers who run creative workshops with schools and young carers across the region.
Hosted by Mayor Cllr Maxine Mitchel, the event brought together local support groups and schoolchildren, who joined a presentation on Caldicot’s evolution over the past five decades.


In honour of the milestone, the Lions co-funded a beautifully hand-crafted tapestry banner and flagpole to celebrate. Elise, Ann, and Karen played a key role in sewing iconic Caldicot landmarks and collaborating with Society members to bring the banner to life.


Lions members are photographed with Mayor Cllr Maxine Mitchel, and banner production organiser Karen Couchman, along with some of the talented individuals Elise and Ann, who spent hours creating this community banner.
