The council won the National Association of Local Council's best council award in a ceremony in Birmingham last night.

Judges cited the council's volunteer-based CCTV system and the monthly health forum meetings it helps organise in giving out the award.

Oswestry mayor Councillor Paul Milner said: " It is a great achievement for our town of Oswestry and Oswestry Town Council."

Earlier this week town clerk David Preston was voted president elect of the Society of Local Council Clerks.
