Hello Readers!<br />
It’s Spring! Well, nearly. After the recent snow apocalypse, you’d<br />
be forgiven for thinking that the warm weather will never come,<br />
but be assured, Spring is coiled, waiting to be sprung.<br />
This time of year is all about new beginnings and you’ll start to<br />
see new shoots of life appearing soon. With the warmer weather<br />
on the way (hopefully) you should be able to get outside and<br />
bathe in the new life starting to appear. If you’d like to share your<br />
pictures of the world around you with us, we’d love to see them.<br />
Speaking of new beginnings, Foster Care Fortnight begins on<br />
the 14th May, but you can make a difference to the life of a child<br />
at any time. If you think you might like to become a foster carer,<br />
read our section on fostering and take the first step on a truly<br />
rewarding journey.<br />
In our What’s On Guide, you’ll find lots of amazing activities to<br />
keep you busy over the coming months and if you fancy seeing<br />
a show, why not check out our Box Office listings? Don’t forget<br />
to enter the inventors competition on page 2 to try and win<br />
£1000 worth of equipment for your school!<br />
Aside from the all the cute new animals, the change in the<br />
weather, and the new flowers, it’s also that time of year when a<br />
certain bunny leaves chocolate eggs in the night. There are lots<br />
of <strong>Easter</strong> Egg Trails through the countryside taking place over<br />
the festive period, so get outside and go on an egg Hunt.<br />
Have a wonderful Spring and <strong>Easter</strong> and we’ll see you all again<br />
for our May edition.<br />
