Each year ACT Neighbourhood Watch celebrates Neighbour Day with a Good Neighbour Award to a resident of the ACT. It is granted to a nominee for making a positive difference to their neighbourhood; making a special effort towards people around them; offering to help out in practical or special ways or for volunteering or supporting the local community.
This year the Good Neighbour Award goes to Amy and Prescott Pym from Forde.
Amy and Prescott Pym actively promote community spirit, inclusiveness and engagement through the work they do as Events Manager and President of the Forde Community Association. They were part of the original team to establish the group and work tirelessly to engage with the residents of their suburb through social media and annual family events held throughout the year.
Amy and Prescott selflessly dedicate many hours of their own time to connecting families of Forde and supporting ACT Neighbourhood Watch through invitations to partake in their events and sharing many of the messages ACT Neighbourhood Watch publishes through social media. Amy and Prescott represent the true values of Good Neighbours in our community.
Margaret Pearson,
President
