I read Cllr Sam Corcoran’s recent letter to the borough’s wider press, with some incredulity, particularly with regard to planning matters.

This World Mental Health day, spare a thought for families struggling to care for a seriously sick child.
We often hear comments such as ‘I feel totally isolated’, ‘life has been turned upside down’ and ‘I have no idea how to control things’ from the families we support.
Dear Editor,
I was saddened and disappointed that Ofsted has found that some of most vulnerable of our children and young people in the Borough have not been best-served by the organisations across Cheshire East that have a duty to protect them.

This is what needs to be done urgently to save Crewe Town Centre from oblivion.

Crewe’s ‘Heritage Wall’ cost £5,625 to design and will cost up to £50,000 to erect.
