(Walk of Affirmation)
Local artist Richard Coan, The Light Project and the local church asked local people how they experience feeling valued, their answers were made into a piece of art which was displayed at Holy Trinity Church in Blacon and is now due to be displayed in various venues around Chester.
These were some of the comments that were made by visitors:
