If you're in the area, why not join one of the Club nets on 2m FM

Grappenhall is a small village in Warrington, Cheshire, in the
north west of England, 3.8km (2.4mi) south east of Warrington town centre.
If you're travelling from the M6 motorway, leave at junction 20
and follow the A50 road towards Warrington. After approximately 1.5
miles you will pass over a canal bridge and approach a 30mph zone.
Bellhouse Lane is on the left as you enter the 30mph zone.
Visitors travelling from Warrington town centre should follow the
signs for Knutsford/Macclesfield along the A50. This route passes
through one or two of the suburbs of Warrington, namely Latchford
and Grappenhall. After you pass over the Manchester Ship Canal
bridge, the road will bend gently to the left. Stay on the A50
until you reach the traffic lights (not any pedestrian crossing).
After the traffic lights the road bears to the right and Bell
House Lane is the next turning on the right.
Whichever route you take, from the A50 end of Bellhouse Lane
follow the lane for about 0.2 miles and Grappenhall Community
Centre and its car park is on the right. The club room is located
towards the rear of the car park.
An interactive map is included below to provide further guidance
if required.
