Community Star Awards

🌟 Celebrating our Community Heroes! 🌟

2023 saw the launch of Disley Parish Council’s new Community Star Awards and a brand new youth award, presented in honour of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

The awards acknowledge the extraordinary contributions made by Disley and Newtown residents to the lives of others in the local community.

Cllr. Simon Brownbill, Chair of Disley Parish Council, was delighted to present the awards at the Annual Civic Sunday event in October. All the recipients had been nominated by Disley and Newtown residents and Cllr. Brownbill thanked them all for their efforts on behalf of the village.
