At the Annual Parish Meeting last night, the Chairman of Hollinswood & Randlay Parish Council, Councillor Sheenagh Unwin, presented the Chairman’s Achievement Awards for 2024/25.

Councillor Unwin said ‘It is a great pleasure to present this year’s award to Nova Training.  The young people, and staff, have worked with the Parish Council throughout the year on a number of local projects and we have appreciated their help and support at our community events and fund-raising activities.

We have a student on work placement every Tuesday – this is a great opportunity to work as part of a team and to learn new skills’.

The second Award, was for the Junior Achievement.

Councillor Unwin announced that ‘This year’s winner is a young man who not only helps the Parish Council at volunteer activities and events, but he helps other organisations around the Parish and can often be seen litter picking around the area.  Simon Braisdell is a very worthy recipient of this Annual Award’.
