CAMPAIGNERS of all ages gathered at Stockton Heath Library today, Wednesday, to protest against LiveWire’s plans to close nine libraries across the town.

The Save Warrington’s Libraries campaign has attracted attention from national media and residents spoke to a presenter from the BBC at the protest.

A petition asking Warrington Borough Council to scrap LiveWire’s proposals has already been signed by more than 7,500 people.

Campaigners have organised a Borrow a Book Day on October 15 and are inviting residents to visit their neighbourhood library to take part in free events.
