🚨 Calling all community heroes!

❗️We are on the lookout for readers' stories to include in a forthcoming issue themed around hope, positivity and people making a difference.

👉 If you know a child who has done something incredible to help their community – maybe they’ve raised money for a charity or cause, been an anti-bullying ambassador at their school or volunteered at a local care home or community gardening project – we would love to hear all about it.

📧 Get in touch by sending a summary and a picture of them doing it via [email protected]
