The Bridge wins Best Community Impact award

We are delighted to see The Bridge, our community hub in the centre of Walton-on-Thames, win the Best Community Impact award in the Walton BID Business Awards!

The awards recognise the best businesses in Walton-on-Thames across nine categories, as voted by over 900 residents.

This award for The Bridge highlights the impact that this project has on local families and our positive reputation amongst the community, which is something we are hugely proud of. The local public have been significant contributors to the success of The Bridge, helping in all sorts of ways from our pre-loved school uniform pop-up shop to donations for The Bridge appeal.

We are also delighted that our fabulous foodbank manager Nina won runner-up for the Employee of the Year award, which recognises her truly tireless work ensuring the Walton & Hersham foodbank reaches everyone who needs it.

And perhaps our biggest achievement is winning ‘Best Dressed Duck’ for Billy, our representative at the Walton Duckathon, held in May.

Thank you to everyone who voted for us!
