welcome to your AMAZing newsletter
covering News, Events and Local Businesses in the CH64 area

Welcome to Neston News - your weekly round up of local news and events in the Neston area.

Open in Browser (some email programmes mess with the layout).

A big thank you to Bernard Rose for the Elephant Santa Dash photo we've used as the header shot this week.  It was a great event, raising lots of money for Northern Lights Children's Charity, well done everyone who participated.

Keeping it quite brief this week as I am sure you are all up to your eyes in Christmas preparations.  There have been some lovely festive events taking place over the last week or so, and still a few more to come before the big day. There are also some food, drink and gift ideas in the area that might interest you and useful info about local services.  See our Christmas in Neston section here for everything you need to know.

Our last Neston News of the year will be published on Tuesday December 23rd and will include our Review of 2014, so don't miss it!  If you have any items you would like us to include in that issue, please ensure we have them by no later than noon on Monday December 22nd. 

Have a great week,

Carrie & the AboutMyArea Team
