Lucy Meacock has announced she is to leave ITV Granada after 36 years.
“This has been one of the most difficult decisions I have ever made. But the time is right to move on now,” Lucy said.
“For me it has always been the best job in the world, with the best people in the world, in the best region in the world! I am very grateful that I was given this job so many years ago. I have always tried my hardest to make a positive contribution and I hope I will be remembered with some fondness in the years ahead.
It has been a complete honour and privilege to serve the people of this region and I will always have the interests of the North West at heart. A big thank you to all the people who have appeared on the programme over the years, sometimes when they have been facing some very tough challenges.”
Lucy began her broadcasting career at Tyne Tees TV with the Miners strike in 1984. Since then she has become a hugely respected presenter and journalist in the North West. She joined the Grandad region in 1988.
Her final Granada Reports will be on Thursday 1st August 2024 on ITV1 at 6pm.
