News for Cheshire

News for Cheshire is the blog of the campaign to get the BBC news website to provide dedicated news coverage of our county, which it doesn't do. Currently, users of the BBC's news website have to hunt on the pages for Merseyside, Manchester and Staffordshire if they want Cheshire news. Other contributors are welcome, just get in touch if you'd like to write for the campaign.

Media coverage afoot

A quick update - the campaign has been approached by How-Do, which plans to offer us space to tell the north-west what we're up to here in Cheshire.

How-Do is the online phoenix that has arisen from the ashes of the late, lamented North West Enquirer - the regional paper/website that lasted just 6 months before backers pulled the plug. We were big fans of the NWE, as it was about the only media outlet in our region that recognised that Cheshire existed and, beyond that, actively sought to include our county in its overall coverage of the north-west as a coherent, recognised region.

Now, How-Do is taking up the reins online to cover media issues around the north-west, so this is a great opportunity to extend awareness of the campaign.

Watch this space!
