Hello reader,

Welcome to your Friday round-up from the Lancashire Post.

Here are some of today's top stories.

  • 🔵 Lancashire Police have broken their silence over rumours of a VIP being escorted throughout the area earlier this week. Was it Bruce 'The Boss' Springsteen, perhaps Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer or even Tom Cruise? Sadly, the truth it seems, is slightly less glamorous.
  • 🔵 A number of fire engines were called to an Aldi supermarket in Lancashire this morning after a fire broke out in the supermarket. Lancashire Fire & Rescue released this statement.
  • 🔵 Drivers have been warned that a number of roadworks are set to begin across Preston and South Ribble next week, including two week long road closures. Here's which roads are set to be affected.

🔵 Mental Health - strength in community

This year’s Mental Health Awareness Week takes place between Monday, May 12 and Sunday, May 18.

‘Community’ has been chosen as the theme for this year’s Awareness week, and along with it, the importance of knowing there’s always someone available to listen - regardless of the situation, no-one needs ever suffer in silence.

 

And to the wider-community - that friend or family member you haven’t spoken to for a while, drop them a message, give them a call - it may just be the most important call of both your lives.

 

Each day we’ll share helpline numbers and website links. Please remember - there’s always an answer to whatever crisis you face.

 

It's OK not to be OK.
