A Lord Mayor gets to present many awards during the year, but never before has a Lord Mayor has presented their own Ambassador Award to recognise those who go beyond expectations. It was so difficult to choose one person or organisation to receive the award, so I chose two! Penybryn Special School and Locws International are two very worthy recipients of becoming the very first organisations to receive the Lord Mayor&#8217;s Ambassador Award. They are two very special organisations which have a wide reach across all communities.&#8221;<\/em> The 2013 &#8211; 2014 Right Worshipful Lord Mayor of the City and County of Swansea, Councillor June Stanton<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.locwsinternational.com\/?attachment_id=9545\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-9545\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9545\" src=\"http:\/\/www.locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/photo-4-19.jpg\" alt=\"photo 4-19\" width=\"670\" height=\"666\" srcset=\"https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/photo-4-19.jpg 670w, https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/photo-4-19-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/photo-4-19-300x298.jpg 300w, https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/photo-4-19-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/photo-4-19-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 670px) 100vw, 670px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.locwsinternational.com\/?attachment_id=9544\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-9544\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9544\" src=\"http:\/\/www.locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/photo-3-19.jpg\" alt=\"photo 3-19\" width=\"670\" height=\"503\" srcset=\"https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/photo-3-19.jpg 670w, https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/photo-3-19-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 670px) 100vw, 670px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Locws Schools team receiving the Lord Mayor&#8217;s Ambassador Award in the Lord Mayor&#8217;s parlour;\u00a0Lynne Bebb, David Marchant, Lord Mayor June Stanton, Caron McColl, Lord Mayor&#8217;s Consort Judith Twining &amp; Carolyn Davies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is with great honour that Locws International are recipients of the first Lord Mayor&#8217;s Ambassador Award 2013\/14.
