Hello! Welcome to the April edition.

April of course has two great sporting events at the beginning of the month, The Grand National and The Boat Race. The latter being particularly exciting this year as local resident, Amelia Standing has been selected to row at this year’s prestigious event as part of the Oxford women’s team. You can read more about this on page 93. I hope that you’ll all be cheering on Amelia and the rest of the Oxford crew during the 6.8km race and fingers crossed they come home victorious!

The Giggle Shack is back on Friday 5th April at Helsby Sports Club for another rip roaring night of live comedy. Tickets are £10 in advance or £12.50 on the door.

On page 4, Clare from Frodsham Flowers reveals her exciting relocation news. Congratulations to both businesses involved!

Award-winning Kingsley Players return with their popular theatre and supper shows this month with the premiere of an exciting new one act play ‘Peterloo’. And The Zodiac are holding auditions on 18th April for children aged 7 - 15 to join them for an upcoming concert, celebrating 50 years of the theatre group. The show features memorable numbers from favourites including “Les Miserables”, “Hairspray”, “Matilda” and many more (p90).

I hope that you enjoy a happy and peaceful Easter. I certainly like Les Harris Jewellers idea of swapping chocolate for diamonds or maybe combine the two for a perfect proposal... I’d love to know if any of you do!

Have a great month,

Best Wishes Sarah x
