In this issue
Dear Readers, Wow! This has been the most hectic few months but I’m really happy to bring The Family Grapevine magazine back into Bath, NE Somerset and surrounding areas. We’ve been talking to lots of parents and child-carers to find out what you want to see inside the magazine and we’re really focused on building the content to become what YOU want. This first issue already has masses of really useful local contact details, with lots more planned for future issues. You can always drop me an email to let me know your thoughts on our content, or perhaps you’d like to tell other parents about your products or services? I’d love to hear from you! We’ll be back again in July, so keep hold of this copy until then when you’ll see even more in our new Family Grapevine magazine.
