I WRITE this in the hope that people will really support Warrington Walking Day this year.

I sometimes think people in Warrington do not realise how lucky we are to have such an event in our town.

Everyone says ‘it is not as good as it used to be’ but I don’t agree.

The streets are still packed and look at the smiles of the faces of children taking part.

It is a shame not all schools and churches take part as they once did but walking day is a part of our history and we should all want to keep it that way.

So come and support walking day and if you have never been before and are free, make the effort to come along.

You will enjoy it.
