 Welcome to Neston News and Neston Life
Click here to view in your browser. Our header this week is from Diane Smith, taken at sunrise on the cycle path near RSPB Burton earlier this week. As we are all too aware, things have been changing on a daily, sometimes hourly, basis all week. We now find ourselves in 'lockdown' with only the most essential journeys outside our homes allowed. NCYC are co-ordinating the local response to help people who need it, visit their website to register for help or offer your assistance. We will continue to keep updating the website and app with any local information that we find, though I suspect the volume of information to start reducing once the country slips into a form of hibernation while we wait for normality to resume. We created a 'Virus Response' section on the Neston Life app, with useful links etc all on there, so please do download it. Finally, please help us spread a little happiness...see our feature here. Stay well, Carrie & the AboutMyArea & Neston Life Team Tel: 0151 336 2734 / Email: carriespacey@aboutmyarea.co.uk Connect with us: Download Neston Life on your smartphone or tablet
