From your Editors causeway.editor@gmail.com
Dear Readers
Editor’s Letter many more sunny days and lighter evenings for us to enjoy. As always we’re very grateful to all our contributors. If you have anything to send in please get in touch at the email address below, we’d LOVE to hear from you!
How well do you know the area? If you have been getting out and walking during lockdown you may recognise this month’s cover photo. Welcome to April’s issue of Causeway, hopefully bringing with it. This month we have the wonderful news that Martin House Hospice have won a National Care Award. This is great recognition of all the work they do to support babies, children and young people with life limiting illnesses along with their families across the Yorkshire area, more information on page 6. Thorp Arch Parish Council have had a new logo refresh from our very own John Pendleton and are sharing all their achievements of the last year on page 10 and we have all the information about the upcoming elections on page 11.
