News in Frodsham

Frodsham Nub News is your local online newspaper, working to gather all the information from the town for our readers, as we approach this second national lockdown.

We will bring you live updates on the current situation as news emerges from key local organisations and businesses.

Frodsham's very own Cheshire Brownies have teamed up with mobile pizzeria, Dough & Go, in an exciting new project.

Dough & Go operate across Cheshire, making stone-baked pizzas for more rural communities who might not have easy access to many restaurants or takeaways.

Today, on Remembrance Sunday, we think about those who gave their lives during the two World Wars and more recent conflicts.

Frodsham War Memorial bears the names of the 105 soldiers who were killed or missing in the First World War, along with over 30 others who were lost during World War Two.

Frodsham Nub News is keen to help all businesses who are affected by lockdown to recover and prosper once again.

Here are three ways Nub News can help you:

Today's Sandstone Trail walk begins just down the road in Manley Common, and moves through the autumnal avenues of Delamere Forest, resplendent in the final weeks of its lovely ambers and golds.

There is some space to park along the side of New Pale Road in Manley Common. This lane is named after the New Pale, an area of open land which is a remnant of the old hunting forests of Mara and Mondrem, favourite stomping grounds of the Earls of Chester from as early as the 11th century.

Frodsham Town Councillor, Mallie Poulton has been honoured with the High Sheriff's Award for his 'great and valuable services to the community'.

The High Sheriff of Cheshire, Nicholas Hopkinson MBE DL, made a special visit to Frodsham to bestow the honour on Cllr Poulton, who has represented Lakes ward since 2015.

With the new national lockdown now in force, the small church service which had been planned by St Laurence's to mark Remembrance Sunday has now been cancelled.

However, in commemoration of those who were lost during First and Second World War, as well as more recent conflicts, the Rev Elaine and the Rev Andrew Amison will be pre-recording an Act of Remembrance for 11am on Armistice Day (Wednesday 11th November).

Local tattoo artist, BillieJo English, has this week shaved her head to raise money for the Pink Ribbon Foundation, following her mother's recent breast cancer diagnosis.

BillieJo's campaign has already raised over £4,000 for the Foundation, which aims to fund projects by UK charities assisting people suffering from breast cancer.
