The Guild of Freemen of the City of London decided against online Joining Ceremonies during the Covid lockdown because it was felt they wouldn't be as special as 'in-person' ceremonies.
Yesterday there were 3 Joining Ceremonies at Tallow Chandlers' Hall which allowed 50 new Guild members to collect their Warrants and meet the Master Mrs Ann-Marie Jefferys and other Court members over a sparkling reception.
