2024 Community Awards for IWD
This year, we were accommodated by Stockport County FC in their fabulous Hardcastle Suite. This year's host was the creative fireball Sally McFerran, who got everyone on their feet with her very interactive icebreaker. The entertainment was brought to you by Smash Parties Entertainment – their Dhol drummers and Bhangra Dancers really got the party started.
