Welcome
In this month’s issue, John Myers of Shrewsbury and
Newport Canals Trust, tells of how a small band of
enthusiasts took to their canoes to help clear the
canal in Newport.
Every month we ask if you have an interesting story
to share, about your village, a group or individual?
This month, Church Eaton Primary School share
what’s behind their double celebration.
The Hey Judes’ sessions, promote the awe-inspiring
musical talent in and around Newport. Nichola
Leeper and Matthew Thomas explain how it all
started.

stories from past or present, that readers are finding
‘informative, educational and often entertaining’.
