LIDL STORE WINS MAJOR BRIGG AWARD

The award-winning Lidl store in Brigg

The new Lidl store in Brigg has collected the Town Council's best building accolade for  2013.
The Brigg Town Council Civic Award is presented in recognition of a feature or location in Brigg which is best considered to have improved the appearance of the town during the previous year.
At the latest meeting of Brigg Town Council it was decided to present the accolade to Lidl UK GmbH - the company's full title. 
Town Clerk Jeanette Woollard explained: "The award is made in recognition of the landscaping works undertaken alongside the development of its new store in Brigg, which has entirely transformed a previously derelict and unsightly location at the entrance to the Town.  
"In addition, the opportunity is also taken to recognise the company’s contribution towards the creation of the Brigg Memorial Garden, as well as improvements to the adjacent walkway leading to the river and beneath the bridge.  
"The Council was equally pleased to note that, since these works were completed, problems related to anti-social behaviour at this location have significantly diminished."
The presentation to Lidl will take place at the Town Mayor’s Civic Charity Banquet on Thursday 20th March in  the Angel Suite.
