Show your appreciation for a fellow member of the community; it may be a friend, a family member or maybe someone you’ve come into contact with who provides a wonderful service or who works hard to make a difference. Let All Things Local surprise them with a fresh bouquet of flowers.
The recipient of this issue’s bouquet is Michelle Read from Kilburn. She was nominated by her neighbour Shirley Brown and Shirley’s daughter Zoe. Here’s what Shirley wrote:

“I would like to nominate my neighbour Michelle Read. I came to Kilburn 2 years ago and I met Michelle while out with my dog, we soon became firm friends. Michelle has made my life worth living. She does my shopping every week and calls in every day or night. I suffer from osteoarthritis and I don’t know what I’d do without Michelle’s friendship.” Shirley Brown. Zoe added: “Michelle is like another mum to me, she has helped me to grow into a woman and she really deserves these flowers for everything she’s done for both me and my mum.”
Nominate someone to receive the next bouquet. All you have to do is state, in no more than 100 words, who you are nominating. Include their address and the reasons why you are nominating them. You can nominate more than one person if they are living/ working at the same address… and remember, flowers don’t just have to be for women!
The only rule is that the person receiving the flowers must live or work in the distribution area of All Things Local Village Edition (listed on front cover). Just write your nomination on a piece of paper and send to Friendship Blooms, All Things Local, 74 Woodhouse Road, Kilburn, Belper, Derbyshire DE56 0NA or e-mail your nomination to karyn@allthingslocal.co.uk putting ‘Friendship Blooms’ as the subject.
