Deirdre Robertson, CEO of Dundee Heritage Trust, said: “Lily is one of our most dedicated volunteers, with 23 years’ experience of sharing her weaving expertise with visitors at Verdant Works.
“Even a broken hip last year hasn’t slowed her down in providing the perfect visitor experience at the Mill, talking to our visitors about the days in which jute was King in Dundee.
“We know our visitors thoroughly appreciate her input as she has received numerous compliments on our Trip Advisor and Google reviews.
“We’re delighted we were able to help her celebrate her 80th birthday as we launched our Winter Fayre.”
