Runner Up < Back Amanda Clegg Leadership Award Runner Up I have met an awful lot of people in the same position as Amanda throughout my previous career, up and down the country but I can confidently say I have never met someone like her before. She is truly an inspiration to me because of her ability to problem-solve, multi-task, dynamically learn, and think incredibly logically within high-pressure situations alongside her amazing wealth of knowledge. All of this while being literally one of the most caring and understanding people/ employers I have known in my lifetime. These { Personal settings :) } often come separate in people or are turned off by default and take years of character-building to understand, however, I can see in Amanda her qualities are very real or True Grit because of this she creates an atmosphere that breeds creativity, forward-thinking and freedom to innovate for me personally which I think many others will agree. Thank you so much :) Sorry for the duplicate please remove N/A sent without message by mistake T Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link

Runner Up < Back Alexandra Ribeiro Wood Shining Star Award Runner Up Never met anyone so calm and excellent at there job extremely organised and very professional "Alex is the business support officer for the Pennines PCN. She has worked really hard with the PCN ensuring she keeps us on target. She is extremely methodical and some would say OCD! She has done a fantastic job with the COVID Vaccines for the most vulnerable patients on the patch. She puts up with six Practice Managers and a clinical director which in itself deserves and award! She will always go over and PCN is achieving its maximum potential. Recently she has taken on more leadership roles like appraisals and has done a great job. Alex should be very proud of what she has achieved over the past 12 months and deserves this award" Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link

2 Back Hollingworth Lake Excavated in 1800 to feed the Rochdale Canal, Hollingworth Lake evolved into a tourist escape in the Victorian period. You can see why, as the reservoir has a location full of drama, looking north and east to the Pennines and the distant gritstone escarpment of Blackstone Edge. Captain Matthew Webb, the first man to swim the Channel in 1875, trained at Hollingworth Lake. Since the 1970s the lake has belonged to Rochdale Council as a country park and has been revived as a leisure amenity. There’s an activity centre on the west bank for sailing, kayaking and canoeing, rowing and windsurfing. Around the shore to the north is the visitor centre, which houses a cafe, a permanent exhibition of local heritage and wildlife and a small art gallery. You can also pick up a fishing licence at the centre, and see if you can land one of the lake’s many carp, roach, tench, bream and perch.

14 Back St Leonard’s Church A few miles south of Rochdale proper, but still in the borough, Middleton’s parish church is also a Grade I monument and merits a closer look. Most of St Leonard’s is from the 1520s, with a few earlier remnants like the south arcade, south porch and tower from the 1410s, and the priest’s door dating back a century before that. The church was completed in a Perpendicular Gothic style by Sir Richard Assheton as thanks for the knighthood he received for his role in the Battle of Flodden in 1513. Make sure to see the Flodden Window in the sanctuary, thought to be the UK’s oldest war memorial. St Leonard’s also has a tremendous array of monumental brasses from the 1500s and 1600s, among which is the only brass depicting a Civil War officer in full armour. Previous Next
