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.

TV debate stirs regional media interest

Following Wednesday's post about the invitation to appear on Newswatch on BBC News 24, the media in the north-west have shown interest.

The regional news hub, How Do, has reported on the forthcoming TV debate. There has also been some interest at the Chester Chronicle, although it's unclear at this stage if they will actually run an article.

The campaign is busy right now doing lots of PR to try and maximise the opportunity offered by Newswatch to widen the discussion.

Stay tuned!
