Good neighbours rewarded this Christmas

All communities have a person who goes the extra mile to help their neighbours. We felt that these people should be celebrated, that’s why we launched the NWH Good Neighbour award.

We asked people to nominate those who really makes a difference to where they live, keep an eye out for their neighbours or always ready to lend a helping hand when needed.

We had some great nominations, full of examples of neighbours supporting each other. We considered the nominations and are pleased to reveal that the two winners are Rachel Turnbull from Noddfa and Dorothy Caudwell from Llys y Coed. Find out why they were nominated below:

Rachel Turnbull, Noddfa

Rachel volunteers three days a week cooking and feeding the homeless. She also goes above and beyond in preparing and giving meals to her fellow residents. She will cook meals for her fellow residents, making sure that everybody’s needs are catered for, often buying ingredients from her own pocket. Rachael is bright and breezy and will help anybody in need. 

Dorothy Caudwell, Llys y Coed

Dorothy helps to organize a lot of entertainment activities for her fellow residents and has been instrumental in trying the get some normality back following Covid. She plays a very important role in building the community spirit here at Llys y Coed

Thank you to you both for being such amazing neighbours! And thank you to everyone who took the time to nominate.
