Nominations wanted for Civic Awards!

The Town Council’s Community and Environment Committee has agreed to take forward a new Civic Awards Scheme for Crewe.

Cllr Suzanne Brookfield, Deputy Leader of the Council said ‘We want to start a small scheme that recognises and rewards the contribution made by individuals who work hard to achieve things in the Town’

‘We would like to encourage the residents of Crewe to nominate people or organisations they feel have made a positive difference to the Town.  Awards will be presented to recipients at the Mayor’s Ball in February.

In future years we hope to create Freemen or Freewomen of the Town – this is a prestigious award and we would warmly welcome suggestions from the public to assist in our decisions.

Details of the awards scheme are set out below:

1. The community is invited to submit nominations of no more than 200 words for any of the following categories:
