Made In Clayton West nomination

Made In Clayton West nomination

Congratulations to Vicki Stratford from Made In Clayton West who was nominated for a Huddersfield Examiner Community Award.

Vicki Stratford is the driving force behind a community group in Huddersfield - Made In Clayton West - which is determined to “make things happen” in the village and to be a community network that connects people in the village around shared interest.

Initially set up by Vicki, Jo Cove and Adele Jackson, along with others the group has been instrumental in setting up projects including community singing group Clayton West Chorus, a walking group, a reading group, people are playing folk music at each other’s houses, wild flowers have been planted in the village, the number of people involved in the Cliffe Woods Conservation Group has grown, the Cliffe Woods memorial garden has been completely transformed from a neglected, overgrown and unused space to an open, attractive garden and a derelict ‘secret garden’ has been re-discovered and brought back to life and children want to independently organise a fun run in Clayton West for charity.
