Volunteer success at the Oxfordshire County Council CHOICE Awards

I’m very pleased to report that the Oxfordshire Master Composters got through the first round of the Oxfordshire County Council CHOICE awards. The CHOICE awards (C = customer focus, H = honesty, O = one team, I = innovation, C = commercial, and E = enthusiasm) are to recognise the contribution of council staff.

We won the Environment & Economy directorate award for Enthusiasm! This is great news in terms of recognition for all the hard work our volunteer Master Composters have brought to the scheme. Especially notable is the fact that this is the first time volunteers have been part of these council internal staff awards.

Many thanks to Ailsa Barber and Janet Witcomb attending the ceremony to represent the MCs.
