A WINSFORD charity celebrated after scooping a handful of borough awards.

Changing Lives in Cheshire, based on the Winsford Industrial Estate, were awarded four separate honours for the quality of their training.

The charity enables trainees to learn new skills by renovating unwanted furniture and electrical items that are then sold on at discount prices to those in need.

CLIC was named Learning Provider of the Year 2014 and Gold Standard Approved Provider 2014.

Nathaniel Strawson earned a Silver Award for Distance Travelled (Learning progression) and Alan Cox was given Outstanding Tutor and Tutor of the Year 2014.
