On May 22 2017, 23 people died - including the perpetrator - and hundreds were wounded in a terrorist attack at an Ariana Grande concert at Manchester Arena.
Survivor Grace Trippitt, from Grimsby, who was 11 at the time, has written about how the bombing and the aftermath have affected her.
Warmingham Lane PLANS are shaping up to improve road safety on one of Middlewich’s busiest roads – with a roundabout set to be redesigned. Residents have long been up in arms about speeding traffic along Warmingham Lane and safety concerns at the Bellway roundabout. The road is often used for traffic between Middlewich and Crewe – and it is only set to get busier in the next few years, with hundreds of new homes being built along Warmingham Lane. Now, Middlewich councillors have met with highways officers at Cheshire East Council to discuss how safety can be improved. Following that meeting, Cllr Carol Bulman told Middlewich Town Council on Tuesday: “Whenever we went out to residents we got a whole range of views – from the elderly, from the young, people pushing plans – so we knew the scope of the problems.

Alex Rodda
A farmer’s son has been found guilty of murdering a schoolboy after paying more than £2,000 to stop him revealing their sexual relationship.
Matthew Mason, 19, admitted bludgeoning 15-year-old Alex Rodda to death with a wrench in woods in Ashley, Cheshire, on December 12 2019.
But a trial at Chester Crown Court heard Mason argued he had experienced a loss of control after being blackmailed by the teenager, who he claimed had tried to attack him before his death.
On Thursday, after nine-and-a-half hours of deliberation, the jury of seven women and five men rejected his defence and found him guilty of murder by a majority of 10 to two.
