Have a Say on Your Health & Social Care!
Posted by Cheshire Community Voice on January 24, 2008 11:00 AM
Cheshire Community Voice are a local Northwich-based charity. We were set up in 2006 to ensure the people of Cheshire had the opportunity to get involved in improving the health and social care services that they receive.
We regularly hold focus groups, workshops, meeting and questionnaires about your local health and social care services. We have direct links to the service providers to ensure your message gets across.
We are always looking for new members. In order for us to best represent the people of Cheshire, it is essential that our membership is as large and diverse as possible.
As a member of CCV you will be kept up to date of the latest consultations and how to get involved. We may invite you to meetings or ask for your views via post, email and our new online forum. You only need contribute when it suits you.
Membership is free and we can tailor the information you receive to your particular areas of interest.
You can now register with us via:

Greyhound Rescue West of England
Posted by Trinity Mirror Cheshire on December 11, 2007 9:39 AM
We are the Cheshire branch of GRWE and have been fundraising for approximately five years. We hold events locally and througout the Cheshire and Staffordshire areas. We have recently added Wirral to our list. We raise awareness and funds to help the charity rescue and rehabilitate abused and abandoned greyhounds. Greyhounds make wonderful pets as they are loving, loyal and gentle. So far this year we have re-homed 100 in this region. We are always looking for volunteers to help us fundraise at events. It's a great way to make new friends, develop a new interest or discover new skills whilst raising money for a worthwhile cause.

Congratulations to VSO
Posted by Trinity Mirror Cheshire on October 15, 2007 11:43 AM
A digital camera has been presented to the Cheshire Branch of the Voluntary Service Overseas as a prize for being one of the first organisations to register on the newly-launched Cheshire Communities website.

Editor in Chief Eric Langton (right) is pictured making the presentation to VSO Cheshire chairperson Lynda Shuttleworth watched by Richard Day, principal of English at the Chester Language School (left) who hosted a social evening for returning volunteers and their families, attended by Chester's Lord Mayor Cllr Jim Latham.
The Cheshire Communities website not only lists contact details but also offers organisations the opportunity to put their own news and pictures online.
Eric Langton said: 'I hope that over the next few weeks the site will expand rapidly as all sorts of voluntary organisations, clubs, pressure groups, societies take advantage of lifting their online profiles.
'I am delighted that Voluntary Service Overseas won the camera prize after being drawn out of the hat from the first 20 organisations to register, and can put it to good use to get photographs of their activities onto the Cheshire Communities site.'
