Resident Stars acclaimed at community awards
Community champions from across Tower Hamlets were honoured on Thursday at the STAR in the Community Awards 2016. Residents from eight housing associations joined together to celebrate and recognise the achievements of the nominees and award winners.
Among the 13 winners was Tania Nalywajko from the Eric estate in Mile End, who won the EEH Inspirational Resident Award. Tania was recognised for her tireless commitment to supporting local groups and creating a strong sense of community.
The video below features one of Tania's neighbours, Kim Yuksel, explaining why she was such a worthy winner.
Tania was presented with her award on the evening by Cllr Sirajul Islam. Congratulations to her and to all the other winners!
