JUST a quick note to say thank you for the amazing job being done by firefighters in the North West over the past week.


The scenes from Winter Hill and Saddleworth – and locally where fire crews battled the blazes in Sutton and Eccleston – underlined how much we should value them.


It’s hard to think of a tougher job then what those men and women have been experiencing over the past week. 


Well done all of you.


AM, Eccleston
