Good morning, Warrington. Mike here. This is The Warrington Scoop.

If you only read one thing about Warrington this week, make it this. We’ve picked out what matters and left out the boring bits.

In today’s Scoop:

• Boutique baby sale 👼 

• Warrington Wordle 🧠 

• What on guide for this week 🗓️ 

• Summer holiday help needed 🖐️ 

Grab your favourite brew, and let's start. ☕️ 

P.S. Hello to all the new subscribers, over 100 of you signed up over the weekend 😄 

From the papers 📰 

Here are some positive stories from around the town over the past few days that are worth knowing about.

Boutique baby sale this Sunday 🛍️ 

If you’ve got kids, you already know how fast the stuff piles up. Clothes they’ve grown out of. Toys they barely touched. Things you bought thinking you'd use them every day but didn’t.

This baby and kids market at Culcheth High School might help. It's on Sunday 27th July, running 11 to 12:30. Loads of parents are talking about it on Facebook, and from the looks of it, it’ll be a busy one.

Find out more here.

From The Scoop Instagram 📸 

This week, we posted a video about how you can no longer turn right at the junction opposite the Golden Gates (you haven’t been able to for a while), but now they have put a concrete curb in to force you to turn right.

Please be aware that if you attempt a sneaky left turn (I’ve already seen loads of cars do it), a camera is now in place to catch you out, so maybe expect a fine in the post 🤷 💌 

After posting the video below, I can maybe see why it’s in place (it stops people cutting through near Go Outdoors to avoid the traffic on Wilson Patten Street). Please share your thoughts on Instagram.

Planning Your Summer?

I’m putting together Friday’s email now. Hopefully, it’ll be a handy guide for the summer holidays. A bit of what’s on, some free ideas, and places that are worth knowing about.

If you’ve got anything planned already, I’d love to hear about it. Day trips. Local places. Even just saving a bit of money when the kids are off school.

We’re in a good place here. There’s loads going on if you know where to look.

If you’ve got something to share, hit reply or answer on the poll below and I’ll try and include a few in Friday’s email.

Warrington Wordle 🧠 

To those of you who haven’t played before, Warrington Wordle is something related to Warrington. It could be a person…… a landmark, a place, or something slightly related to Warrington (these are hard to come up with at times). It’s just a bit of fun to warm up your brain on a Sunday.

Always feel free to reply to this email to let me know how you got on.
