 Welcome to the last Neston News of 2014 - your weekly round up of local news and events in the Neston area. Open in Browser (some email programmes mess with the layout). Thank you to Rob Clive for the photos of local Christmas decorations that make up the final header shot of the year. Photos, left to right, are of Willaston, Ness, Neston, Burton (Church) and Parkgate. How lovely and festive everywhere looks! As has become traditional, our last Neston News of the year includes our Review of 2014 and CH64 - The Year in Pictures. We hope you enjoy a look through what went on around here over the last 12 months - it was never quiet! Our newsletter this week also includes Christmas messages for you from our MP, Neston's Mayor and our Police Sergeant. We would like to add to them our very best wishes to everyone for a lovely Christmas. We have very much enjoyed bringing you all the local news, events and business information this year and look forward to a happy, healthy and prosperous 2015 for Neston and its residents. The next edition of Neston News will be with you on Wednesday January 7th. In the meantime, we will keep AboutMyArea Neston up to date and, though we are taking a short break over Christmas, emails will be monitored for anything urgent. Have a lovely festive season! Carrie & the AboutMyArea Team
