Customer Connect Day
You may have seen that we recently launched our new customer strategy, Together With You. You can read it here.
To kickstart our plans, we organised our first ever Customer Connect Day on October 15th. Our team were out and about making a difference in our communities. A range of activities took place across Sale West and Trafford, including litter picking, seasonal planting and gardening. We also visited elderly residents with care packages and volunteered at local food banks and charities.
It was great to connect with our customers and we look forward to doing more events like this in the future. 
Bev's Kitchen
As part of the Customer Connect Day, the Sunshine Cafe in Sale West had a fabulous revamp. We have also renamed the kitchen after our lovely Bev, who very sadly passed away recently. A beautiful sign featuring sunflowers (her favourite) will soon take pride of place in the space.
If you haven't been to the cafe since the revamp, please do come and visit for affordable food and drinks!
We are open Monday - Friday, 9am - 2pm. 
Street Lighting in Sale West
We have been addressing concerns about street lighting in Sale West with Amey who are responsible for this. We have provided them with a film clip showing the areas where the lights remain out and will continue to follow up with them to get these areas resolved as we know the impact it is having on residents.
We are expecting them to visit this week to check on the area and see what else needs to be done. If you would also like to raise a concern you can do this via this website link.
Do you know someone who is doing great things in your neighbourhood?
Whether they fundraise for a great cause, take time to litter-pick or are just a really great neighbour, nominate them for an Irwell Valley Homes Heart of the Community Award. The winners will get a special engraved glass award, a certificate commemorating their achievement and a £200 cash prize.
Plus, you could win something too - everyone who fills out a nomination will be entered into a prize draw to win £100.
