Gold award for Somerford Parish Council

Somerford Parish Council have announced that they have once again been awarded Quality Gold under the Local Council Award Scheme.

The Parish Council were first awarded Quality Gold in August 2016 under this most prestigious scheme and at that time were one of only three holders in Cheshire – to date there are still only five Cheshire parishes which hold the award and just fifty parishes in the whole of England.

The Quality Gold Award demonstrates that a council is at the forefront of best practice and achieves excellence in governance, community leadership and council development.

In announcing this award, the Parish Council paid tribute to the hard work and commitment over the last 12 years of clerk, Julie Mason, who was recently appointed as Clerk to the Bollington Town Council, and welcome our new Clerk, Carlton Evans, who will be working hard to maintain the excellent standards for which Somerford Parish has become known.
