@kevpeellab @LiveLancs @CumbriaLive Hi, it looks like it'll the Lancs team with help from the Manchester Evening News

[Melissa Major @mmajor95]

Well, today was my last day @LiveLancs and @CumbriaLive. It's been a great two and a half years since starting in June 2021. It's been a tough week this week, but wow what an adventure. I cannot thank the team, past and present, who have helped me along the way.

[Melissa Major @mmajor95]

But, now is the time to move on to new challenges. I'm excited for what 2024 has lined up for me. Here's to the future. Thank you everyone who had helped me along the way ❤️

[Melissa Major @mmajor95]

My colleagues have always been there to support me and I've learned so much. Cumbria is a massive county and it's been a challenge to cover it mostly on my own with the help of the team for live news and longer reads. But, I've learned a lot along the way.
