Foster and be the difference to a child’s life Local residents tell the
truth about poverty in
west Cheshire
People who have experienced poverty
first-hand can play a vital role in making
decisions on how to tackle it.
The newly established West Cheshire Poverty
Truth Commission is working with a group of
local residents called community inspirers,
who may have lived with poverty, to share
their stories and help identify and tackle the
barriers people face.
The Commission will bring together
community inspirers with influential
businesses, civic leaders and professionals
to build relationships, encourage change
and ensure that their experiences and
views are placed at the heart of all work to
tackle poverty.

Cheshire West and Chester Council currently looks after 493 children
and young people and has 171 approved fostering households.
One of 23 local authorities backing the You Can Foster campaign, the
Council aims to recruit more foster carers. There are a lot of
preconceived ideas about why you might be ruled out as a foster
carer, but the only thing that matters is the support you can offer a
child for them to have the best possible start in life.

Designing a market for the future
A historic west Cheshire market is setting out its stall for a long
and prosperous future.
Chester Market, managed by Cheshire West and Chester Council, is
preparing to move to a new purpose-built venue at the heart of the
£300m Chester Northgate development. Plans for the development
have been approved, giving the go-ahead for an exciting scheme that
includes a hotel, department store, restaurants, cinema and market.
Fishmonger Steve Cartridge (pictured) is looking forward to the move,
which is scheduled for 2019.
He said: “Markets welcome people of all ages. We are passionate
about the products we sell and I’m looking forward to seeing my
existing customers and welcoming the many new visitors when the
market is complete.
“The products in the market are diverse, with many you will be
pushed to find on the high street. If you can’t find an item you want,
we will direct you to a trader that does have it or we’ll try and source
it for you, there really is something for everyone.”

Support is now greater than ever after
additional funding was secured by Cheshire
West and Chester Council for Women’s

WHAG supports victims of domestic abuse on

more high risk cases that require immediate
support in crisis. The service supports adults
and young people aged 16 and 17 and offers
recovery programmes, advice and guidance.
The successful bid has also seen £70,000
