ALTRINCHAM and Bowdon Civic Society was presented with its Civic Day award for community engagement by Ian Harvey of Civic Voice at its AGM.
Presenting it to Viv Labaton, who masterminded a cultural heritage event the society put together, Ian said he regarded Altrincham as one of the top societies in the UK.
A full house heard Nick Johnson, who is now running Altrincham Market, and Professor Cathy Parker, of MMU, talk about how the community can help save the high street.
