This week's header is of the fabulous Neston-based Hip & Harmony Community Choir, taken when they performed recently at Chester Zoo, during a fundraiser for the Zoo's famous and much-loved elephants.  The Choir, led by musical director Paula Prytherch, will be singing at Saturday's Neston Village Fair and again at the Jazz Picnic the following weekend.

So, it's GO NESTON! this weekend - a weekend of events right on your doorstep, including the Farmers' Market, Neston Village Fair, the Liverpool-Chester cycle ride, the Colour FUN Run from Willaston to Parkgate and the Fun Day at Neston Cricket Club.  What's not to love?

We've started our Summer Holiday Activities section now, you can find it here. If you know of, or are organising, something you think should be listed, please get in touch by email.

Have a great week,

Carrie & the AboutMyArea team
