A coalition of thirteen leading rural organisations is today urging the Government to commit to more equitable funding in rural areas to support England’s economic recovery from COVID-19.

The Leader of Cheshire West Council Councillor Louise Gittins is urging all residents to play their part to protect family and friends by downloading the new NHS COVID-19 app.

The grant will support SMEs across Cheshire & Warrington affected by COVID-19, and focuses on helping businesses to develop new business models and products, or target new markets or customers.
