Your Wirral News team has got it all covered

May 27 2009 by Lorna Hughes, Heswall News

MEET the team!

Matt Hurst, Lorna Hughes, Carrie Catterall, Liam Murphy and Kevin Core are our dedicated reporters who cover Wirral and ONLY Wirral.

Whether it's a community event, schools, crime, courts or the environment, the team cover the issues that matter to our readers.

We have more than twice the number of reporters of other local publications in Wirral so we can cover the News more comprehensively - both in print and online.

Our website is updated seven days a week with all the breaking news as it happens.

We're finding new ways to bring you the news you want - your Wirral team are all fully-trained multi-media journalists so you can also spot them filming all the action at local events.

And move over Stephen Fry and Jonathan Ross - Wirral News was one of the first local newspapers in the UK to become part of micro-blogging site Twitter.

Get connected by finding us on www.wirralnews.co.uk or www.twitter.com/WirralNews

And we don't just bring you the News - we also put you in touch with the people behind the news. Last year the News was the first local newspaper on Merseyside to hold a live blog, which saw Wirralians quizzing the company behind plans for The Sail hotel and sailing school project in West Kirby.
