Magazines Editor As we head into 2022, we must stay positive and that’s what this New Year issue of Live Ribble Valley is all about. It’s about health, wellbeing and mindfulness and it’s also about the people who can guide us into living a life that is happy and fulfilled. We meet chef and cookery writer Ching-He Huang, world-renowned for her enthusiastic approach to healthy eating. She has unveiled her latest book Asian Green, which is full of delicious plant-based recipes. Ching, who is visiting the Ribble Valley during Chinese New Year, was inspired to write the book after her husband’s health vastly improved when he switched to a vegan diet. Her dynamic approach to healthy food is demonstrated in her recipes which feature fresh, organic and ethicallysourced ingredients. Travelling the world with her work, Ching has appeared in numerous US TV shows and in the UK she is a regular guest on Saturday Kitchen, This Morning and Sunday Brunch. This month we also talk to artist Anthony Platt who used lockdown to review and transform his style of painting. Taking a considered approach, he decided to follow his instincts – and the result has been remarkable. Since changing and developing his style he has won numerous awards and his paintings now feature in local galleries. Change often features in New Year’s resolutions too – this month we speak to the experts who can help us stick to them! Whether that’s joining a gym, taking up running, wild swimming, yoga, meditation or simply getting out in the great outdoors, they can advise on how you can achieve your personal goals in 2022. On behalf of the team here at Live Ribble Valley we wish everyone a happy, healthy and peaceful New Year! Jan Woolley Editor
