A Memorial bench and garden dedicated to a
Clean Team member who died in a road accident has won a community
accolade. Middlewich won a Little Gem award at the
Community Pride competition at Nantwich Civic Hall for 'Katy's
Wall'.
Katy Lee died in a road accident in 2004
and members of Middlewich Clean Team wanted to pay tribute to
her. So a wall between Middlewich Library, in
Lewin Street, and Jennie Edwards Curtain Specialist, in Hightown,
was transformed into a garden and bench. Janet Chisholm, founder of the Clean Team,
said: "I feel so proud for this recognition and would like
to thank Di and Chris for looking after the memorial garden so
well."
The Little Gem award is a new category at
the Community Pride competition. "It recognises the work of volunteers
who look after their environment."
