AN EMERGENCY management consultant from Siddington has been commended in a new report.

Louise Elstow, pictured, is helping build more resilient urban communities and received a glowing mention in ‘Building Better Communities through Global Learning’, a report by the Winston Churchill Memorial Trust and the Rank Foundation.

The report draws together three years of global research findings from Churchill Fellows. It was unveiled last week at a launch event in Portcullis House in the House of Commons.

The launch event was attended by policy makers, local authorities, charities and practitioners.
