Community centre is best in the region

Representatives of Castlemere community centre celebrate after being presented with their social enterprise of the year award.

A Rochdale community centre has been heralded as the best in the North West.

Castlemere community centre was named as the region's social enterprise of the year in the Ethnic Minority Business Forum North West Awards, which were held last week at Old Trafford, home of Manchester United football club.

The community centre was awarded as an organisation set up in the community by the community and for the benefit of the community.

The awards celebrate the contribution made by ethnic minority businesses to the North West, recognising and rewarding the outstanding achievements made by black and ethnic minority entrepreneurs and businesses in the North West.
