South Cerney Wins Two Awards

Villages across the Cotswolds have been competing in this year's Calor Village of the Year Competition for Gloucestershire, and South Cerney has picked up two of the awards.

The 'Safer Villages' category was won by South Cerney. South Cerney also won for 'The Environment', delighting the local council.

As southcerney.com reported earlier his year, vandals trashed the village war memorial earlier, but this has now been restored. Councillor Michael Stuart is reported to have said, "We are particularly delighted with winning 'Safer Villages' as we have pursued our vandals through the courts and are now getting money out of them"

He went on to say "We are all extremely pleased with winning the two awards we did. To get something where people can see the community is working together is a great thing - it's a marvellous competition to work on."
