Community Asset Awards Pride In A Pandemic: Dr. Cyndi Wells, Ken Nebel And Laura Crucet Are Recognized
By BERNADETTE LAURITZEN
C’YA Executive Director
There have been many businesses going above and beyond the call of duty, during the last year, but the Champions of Youth Ambitions, (C’YA), will highlight just a few.
The Pride in the Pandemic series has lasted a few months now, spotlighting the work of people, programs and projects that have made the last year a bit more bearable.
The Community Asset Awards announcements for 2020 kicked off on Martin Luther King Jr Day to highlight many of those of service. Work began with the Los Alamos MainStreet Program, to highlight and support local businesses in place of the annual gathered celebration.

Ownership of the George Carnall centre in Urmston is being handed over to the community by Community Asset Transfer next month, something agreed by the council in 2020. The centre is being signed over to the George Carnall Community Group which will be responsible for its running and management. As part of the transfer signed off in October 2020, Trafford Council also gave the group more than £100,000 to support immediate necessary repairs and other initial costs. The plan is for the centre’s new owners to apply for council funding grants in future to maintain it.
