Sergeant Kelly Rooke, of Warrington Town Centre Neighbourhood Policing Unit said: “We are urging as many women as possible to get involved in International Women’s Day and the events and activities that are taking place across the town.
“This is a great, informal, way for women from across Warrington to meet, have a chat and network.
“The personal safety and well being day at the community police post in the town centre is open to anyone.
“Local officers will be on hand on the day to talk to women, offer personal safety and security advice and security mark any valuable items.”

Just wondering when the International Men’s Day is, maybe they should be combined in to an International Person’s Day.
