Now that Cheshire West has entered Tier 3 restrictions, the Council has notified residents that its libraries, including Frodsham and Helsby, will remain closed until further notice.

For now, loans and overdue charges have been extended. From January 7th, an order and collect service will be available from Frodsham Library, but not Helsby. More information can be found on your library account.

This Christmas delivery operation has been running county-wide, with Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service crews taking gifts to more than 350 of our local care homes.

For our festive edition of Weekend Walks, we travelled up to the largest of Cheshire's Iron Age hill settlements: Eddisbury hill fort.

With views over the sprawling woodland and deep, still lakes of Delamere, this three mile circuit is a refreshing moment of quiet to offset the bustle of Christmas Day.

Although Cheshire will be entering Tier 3 on Boxing Day, 'Christmas bubble' rules will still apply on Christmas Day for local residents.

This means that people from Frodsham and Helsby can meet with up to two other households in each other's homes, in a place of worship or in any outdoor space. Overnight stays are only allowed if absolutely necessary.

This week, Home Instead Senior Care have been busy delivering Christmas cards and presents gifted by the community to Frodsham's older residents.

Now, Jane Pinnington, Community Relations Coordinator at Home Instead, would like to say a huge 'thank you' to everyone involved.
