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.

Campaign update

The campaign has been rather quiet of late. As usual, little Cheshire news gets reported on the BBC website. No change there then... It was gratifying to see this story on Chester's Grosvenor Park get some coverage, but as you might guess it's had considerably more coverage in the local press. If the BBC had a dedicated Cheshire page, many more people from across the county would have been aware of the consultation and taken the opportunity to air their views -it's not just Cestrians who use the park, after all. Still, now that I've aired the report on here, you could always visit the consultation site and have your say.
