Council Pays Tribute to Long Serving Wokingham Lollipop Lady

Wokingham District Council is today paying tribute to former school crossing patroller Irene Green who sadly passed away on Saturday (November 11). Irene had been battling with cancer for some time.

Irene worked at the crossing site on Beechwood Avenue near Beechwood Primary School for over 20 years. She retired in September due to ill-health. School crossing patrol organiser Julie Pillai said: “Irene was a valued member of our team and she will be greatly missed. She was a well-known figure amongst the Woodley community and hugely popular.

“Our thoughts are with Irene’s family and friends at this sad time.”
