SHELL Stanlow stepped-in to
ensure a sociable summer for
a group of older residents in
Ellesmere Port.
The company rst joined forces
with Age Concern Cheshire last
year to deliver a series of trips,
treats and visits for pensioners in the Ellesmere Port area. The scheme has proved to
be a huge success and has provided numerous fun days out since its launch. This yearvisits have included canal boat trips from the Ellesmere Port Boat Museum, outings to
Llandudno, West Kirby, and the Anderton Boat Lift in Northwich as well as treats such as
facials, manicures and massages.
Shell public affairs advisor Rachel Evans joined a group of local older people during an
organised party at the Whitby Sports and Social Club in Ellesmere Port. Partygoers
enjoyed a game of prize bingo and were entertained by a professional singer whilst they
tucked into a tasty lunch.
Rachel said: We are thrilled to team up with Age Concern Cheshire. They do some
fantastic work nationally as well as locally within our neighbouring communities.
This scheme will provide an excellent opportunity for our local older residents to get outthere and meet people and have a fun time whilst in a safe and friendly environment. The
party was a perfect example of this and it was also lovely to meet a number of former
Stanlow employees and talk about how the site has changed over the years.
Pictured enjoying the party atmosphere at the Whitby Sports and Social Club event
are, from left, Shell pensioner and former Stanlow public relations manager Nick
Nichols, Rachel Evans and Valerie Nichols.

Sometimes in life, you have to hit rock bottombefore you can get up and start to
make the changes you need to and
thats what happened to me.
I was always a big lad, and during my late
20s and early 30s, my weight started to get
to me. I was always in and out of hospital
for tests on my heart and I was suffering
from frequent blackouts problems that
were both attributable to my weight.
Four years ago, a mental breakdown
again, a knock-on effect of my obesity
cost me my career, my 14-year marriage
and very nearly my life. In January 2007,
when my wife and I nally separated, I
was the biggest Id ever been and to
be honest, a bit of a mess. I knew I
needed to lose weight, and saw
an advertisement for Slimming
World but I kept putting it offby making one excuse after
another. Finally, one Thursday, I
nally mustered the strength to
walk through those doors at my local group and its the best thing I ever did.
Straight away, I got an amazing welcome and a great sense of belonging plus the
help I got from my local Consultant and the other members at group was incredible. In
my rst week, I lost 7 lbs and immediately achieved my half-stone award, then the
week later, I lost another 6lbs to win Slimmer of the Week. The sense of motivation was
incredible and its changed my whole outlook on life.
Now I go to the gym regularly and cook healthy Food Optimising meals for myself.My depression and anxiety have almost completely disappeared and Ive regained the
condence I need to get back to work I feel as though the worlds my oyster! In just
15 weeks, Ive lost nearly 4 stones and 8 inches off my waist. In 2007, I really felt like
Useless Man of the Year, but now Ive just won our groups Man of the Year 2008.
What an amazing feeling!
So, in a nutshell, thank you to Slimming World, my consultant and everyone at group.
You have in no uncertain terms saved my life.

many dog owners are
responsible but there are still
a few who need reminding about
their social responsibility bag it and bin
it. Im pleased that we are able to locatemany of these bins in new locations
requested by residents.

A SPECTACULAR military
parade will make its way
through Ellesmere Port
town centre as the newly
formed Mercian Regiment
is awarded Freedom of
the Borough.
After initial hopes of
holding the event in July
were dashed, the parade
involving 350 servicemen
and women has now
been rearranged and will
take place on Friday 26th
September.
Borough Mayor Cllr Keith
Butcher will greet the
regiment at Civic Square
where he will receive the
salute and present them
with a scroll granting them
Freedom of the Borough.
The 22nd (Cheshire)
Regiment had a long-
standing link to Ellesmere
Port and Neston having
been awarded the
Freedom of the Borough
in 1986.
However, in September
2007 the Cheshires
merged with the
Staffordshire and the
Worcestershire and
Sherwood Foresters
Regiments to form The
Mercian Regiment.
As a result, 1st Battalion
The 22nd (Cheshire)
Regiment became 1st
Battalion The Mercian
Regiment (Cheshire), thus
retaining its proud link with
Cheshire in its title.
Cllr Butcher, said: Itis a great honour to
welcome the servicemen
and women to Ellesmere
Port and to grant the
new Mercian Regiment
Freedom of the Borough.
Regiment are on the march
