Winner: NHW Manningham

We are pleased to announce Neighbourhood Watch Manningham for their project "Don’t Do Something Silly: Beating Scams," aimed at educating Chinese-speaking residents on how to avoid scams. This project featured presentations in both English and Chinese, as well as brochures in Traditional and Simplified Chinese, distributed widely across the community. With over 56 elderly residents attending the initial presentation, and further outreach efforts to the broader migrant community, this initiative has raised awareness about scams and helped vulnerable residents feel more secure. Manningham NHW’s culturally sensitive approach and continued efforts to protect their community from fraud are truly commendable.
