BID receives 'Outstanding Community Partner Award'

The Northwich BID has been recognised by the Cheshire Down’s Syndrome Support Group (CDSSG) after being named their ‘Outstanding Community Partner’ of the year at the organisation’s annual AGM and awards ceremony.

Lucy Liddiard, Chief Operating Officer at CDSSG, has explained why the Northwich BID received the award.

“Northwich BID won the Outstanding Community Partner Award for their work with us to promote Makaton in Northwich and help make the town become the first Makaton friendly one in the North West.

“They really helped us raise awareness of the initiative and made sure that the news was spread far and wide in the town and even further afield to help it have the biggest impact possible.”

Northwich BID Manager Jane Hough attended the ceremony and spoke of her pride at the BID receiving the award. She also praised CDSSG for the incredible work that they do on a daily basis.

“The awards were a brilliant opportunity to hear about all of the amazing work that CDSSG delivers for the community – there are so many selfless and determined individuals out there who are focused on improving the lives of people with Down’s syndrome and their families.”
