A PODIATRY clinic is reopening its doors in Penketh after closing during lockdown.

Claire Collinson and Vickie Albinson opened A&C Elite Footcare on Warrington Road just before Covid-19 hit.

Despite the struggle of having to close, the pair from Penketh are looking forward to welcoming clients to the new business.

Claire was redeployed as a district nurse during lockdown but is excited to be back working in podiatry.

They said: "We are really looking forward to getting back work and seeing our existing patients again, and hopefully meeting some new ones.

"We are aiming to keep the people of Warrington comfortable and pain free."

A&C Elite offers services such as diabetic foot screens, verruca needling and general foot care to adults and children.

As a result of Covid-19, no more than one patient will be in a at a time and there will also be extra cleaning involved between patients.
