Hollinwood residents attend Halloween firework spectacular

by Ethos public relations

Over 1000 Hollinwood residents were treated to a dazzling fireworks display this week thanks to local organisations working together.

Hollinwood District Partnership, Contour Homes and Regenda Housing helped to fund the event, whilst local groups Oldham Roughyeds, the Youth Offending Service and Inclusion Service and St Margaret’s Church all played their part to ensure it was a success.

Sarah Furbey, Community Development Worker at Contour Homes, said: ‘I’m so glad that in these difficult financial times we were still able to go ahead with this event, and give local residents a chance to get together and have a great time.

“The firework display was safely organised, very impressive and was enjoyed by all.”

The event also included a Halloween Party at the Roughyeds Rugby Club, where traditional games of apple bobbing and a scariest pumpkin competition were held.

Ruth Eckerlsey from Regenda Housing said: “Regenda would like to thank Oldham Rugby for all the hard work and effort they have put into the event, and we hope to work together in the future looking forward to a long term relationship.”

The organisers are looking for local residents who would like to get involved in planning future events in Hollinwood, please contact Sarah Furbey on 07985 538229 if you would like to give your ideas.
