From your Editors causeway.editor@gmail.com
Dear Readers
Welcome to the July & August issue of Causeway - phew this year is flying by! Lots going on in this issue and hopefully around the area over the next few weeks as lives are slowly returning to normal. Martin House Hospice are sharing their new ‘Cow and Calf Abseil’ fundraiser taking place on 17th July, more information on page 6.
If you have any contributions for the magazine or would like to join the team please email us at causeway.editor@gmail. com.
We have some brightly coloured artwork from Clifford resident 12 year old Sam Alker, who took part to have his artwork featured at Leeds United training ground as part of their ‘Football vs Homophobia’ scheme; his artwork is all about equality, more on page 15.
Blessings
As the summer holidays approach Sandra has written us a wonderful article about traditional street games and how to play them - definitely lots to help pass those long (hopefully) sunny days - all on page 20.

As we reach our second summer editing Causeway, Victoria and I would like to offer up the opportunity for new editors to take over the magazine starting in 2022. If you’re interested, please email us and get in touch to join the team!
