WINSFORD’S great outdoors is in safe hands after a new apprentice was appointed to care for the town’s green spaces.

Nathan Taylor was the successful candidate in Winsford Town Council’s search for a talented young person to help transform the public realm.

The 17-year-old will join a team working hard to keep the region spick and span, and helping the council achieve their ambition of transforming Winsford’s green spaces into ‘floral parks’.

Nathan is the latest recruit in the town council’s investment in youth apprenticeships, and will receive training at Nantwich’s Reaseheath College during his tenure.
