Good Neighbour Award 2021
Congratulations to Mrs Elizabeth Bittle, of Orchard Court in Newtownards. Mrs Bittle has won the 2021 Muriel Smyth Good Neighbour award. The award is an opportunity to nominate a fellow Choice tenant who embodies the values of a good neighbour. There are many reasons someone would be deserving of this award, have they helped you out at a time of crisis, help you with your garden or do some shopping for you when you can’t? Maybe they have just been there when you needed someone to talk to. The entries for this competition are always inspiring and this year was no different. The judging panel read through the many entries and were blown away by the accounts of kindness, thoughtfulness and community that shone out.
In the end it was a very personal entry which won. Elizabeth Bittle was nominated by a neighbour, the entry detailed the important ways Elizabeth makes a difference. “Elizabeth has a smile for everyone, and helps many”. Congratulations Elizabeth!
