Front Cover: Students from <strong>Amersham</strong> School<br />
elcome to the <strong>Sept</strong>ember and<br />
<strong>Oct</strong>ober <strong>issue</strong>! It’s all about<br />
back-to-school and getting ready<br />
for Autumn.<br />
If you are parents with children receiving<br />
A-level and GCSE results this August, I hope<br />
they got the results they needed. Our school<br />
open day tips (p12) and listings (p14) may help<br />
you decide on the right school for your child.<br />
Thanks to <strong>Amersham</strong> School for providing my<br />
front cover; the students all look as though<br />
they are having lots of fun! Exercise is so<br />
important in so many ways, and if you want a<br />
challenge why not consider the Gerrards Cross<br />
5km? I’m on the committee organising this<br />
event and know the effort employed arranging<br />
it! (p18)<br />
Lots of community news: congratulations<br />
to Chalfont St Giles for winning Best Kept<br />
Village. Meet the <strong>Amersham</strong> Market Traders on<br />
p24-26 and <strong>Amersham</strong> firefighters, who provide<br />
an exceptional service to the area and urgently<br />
need part-time fire-fighters. (p22) We all need<br />
to look after our planet, and Healthright in<br />
Chesham can help us (p27)<br />
Exciting news: in the next <strong>issue</strong> I will be<br />
launching a new look and name for both<br />
magazines in <strong>Amersham</strong> & Chalfonts and<br />
Beaconsfield. I feel passionate about the<br />
communities in which we live and my vision is<br />
to help connect as many businesses, charities,<br />
organisations and people together. Look out<br />
for the new name!<br />
Keep safe and see you in November.<br />
