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.

Back on the map

After a total news drought lasting more than 8 days, we are pleased to report that Cheshire has been found alive and, well, not really well, but certainly kicking.

It's been all go in Widnes the last few days: first, gunshots were fired at someone's house. Then, a woman was assaulted while asleep.

Elsewhere, Wilmslow (which has been a hotbed of crime since Kerry Katona's burglary) made the headlines again. This time, because a care worker brutalised a patient.

Lastly, someone shot a cat with an airgun in the Chester suburb of Blacon.

Nothing nice to report, but we are relieved that Aunty has temporarily remembered that life does go on in Cheshire...
