IT’S the time of year to cast our eyes back over the last 12 months, and pick out the highs and lows of a year of Royston news.

8 – The Royston branch of the Royal British Legion had to raise �20,000 to save its premises, or face closure.

Thankfully the money was donated, thanks largely to the Brian Leslie Racher Trust, and the legion was ready for its biggest day of the year.
