Handforth will be given more than £21 million to provide infrastructure for The North Cheshire Garden Village.

The £21.7 million will be spent on road improvement works, utilities update and remediation.

Treasury ministers will meet with Tatton MP Esther McVey to discuss school funding across Cheshire.

The meeting was secured during an exchange in Parliament where Ms McVey demanded more cash for local schools.

AN MP is throwing her weight behind villagers’ plea to get the council to listen and act over the “unacceptable behaviours” at the cement works site in Byley - which they claim is having a detrimental effect on their health as well as damaging the beauty of the area.

Esther will often make a short vide to update local residents on what she has been focussing on in the constituency. Here is the recording from last Friday:

New figures show that the number of people in work is at a record high and wages are growing at their fastest rate in over a decade.

Thanks to our investment of £20.5 billion a year in real terms by 2023-24 the plan will transform patient care and make sure every penny of taxpayers’ money is spent wisely.

An MP has called for fairer funding for Cheshire schools and demanded answers as to why the area misses out to areas such as London.

Handforth has been awarded £150,000 of Government cash to help develop plans for the new garden village.
