Who is Wigan Borough’s most Outstanding Neighbour?

That’s the question being posed by Wigan & Leigh Housing (WALH) – and they want the public to join the search party.

WALH, which manages Wigan Council’s housing stock, is inviting the many thousands of people across the Borough’s estates to nominate the person they feel fits the bill.

They are looking for people who deserve special recognition for the positive contribution they make to local life and lives.

For example it could be:

someone who takes an elderly neighbour to the shops
or
does the gardening for somebody who can’t
or
someone who takes a stand against Anti Social Behaviour?'

If you would like to nominate anybody in your area please contact me on 736216.

Nomination forms are also available from all Wigan & Leigh Housing offices. Closing date for nominations is 31st October.

Winners will be chosen from the Wigan, Leigh, Platt Bridge, Pemberton and Atherton forum areas, with the overall winner announced at the 2008 Tenants’ Conference taking place at Hindley’s Monaco Ballroom.
