Town to stand together to mark 25 years since the Warrington bombing
By TODAY marks 25 years since two bombs were detonated in the heart of Warrington killing two innocent children, 12-year-old Tim Parry and three-year-old Johnathan Ball. Many more were left with life-changing injuries including mum-of-two Bronwen Vickers. The tragic events that unfolded almost a quarter of a century ago shook the whole of Warrington. The town will fall silent later today, Tuesday, to mark the 25th anniversary of the Warrington bombing during a commemoration service on Bridge Street, which will be attended by HRH The Princess Royal. The families of victims will also be present at the service including faith leaders and representatives of the British and Irish governments. This includes Colin and Wendy Parry who set up The Tim Parry and Johnathan Ball Foundation for Peace. The foundation, which is our 2018 charity of the year, was established in the name and memory of the two young boys whose lives were cut tragically short. The Warrington Guardian will be reporting live from the event throughout the morning, with the ceremony starting around 12pm. Wreaths will be laid at 12.25pm with a minute’s silence at 12.27pm. Warrington Male Voice Choir and choirs from Sankey High School and Barrow Hall Primary School are expected to perform at the commemoration. Due to the size of the event and the security procedures in place the council has advised members of the public who are not planning on attending the event to avoid the town centre for the duration of the service. A number of road closures will also be in place on the day: From 5am on Tuesday and up to around 3pm there will be road closures and restrictions on some pedestrian access. Closure in place from 9am along Sankey Street from Legh Street to Bold Street. There will no access or return until after the event finishes at approximately 1.30pm. Cairo Street from Egypt Street to Sankey Street will be closed from 5am. No vehicles permitted at this time.

Town centre (Bridge Street, Horsemarket Street, Buttermarket Street, Sankey Street) no access for deliveries on the day until approximately 2pm. Horrocks Lane will be closed from 5am.
