Youth Newsletter

 

Jon, our Youth Development Officer, writes and sends out his Zipper club newsletter to all LHM young members aged 10 and over. He did send it monthly but due to a lack of funds it will now be every few months.

 

Your child will automatically start receiving their monthly newsletter when they reach their 10th birthday and it will be addressed directly to them.

 

Below are copies of the newsletter for parents to view. Click on the issue number to open a PDF version in a new window.

 

If you would like to discuss any articles in the newsletter (or you just want the answers to those pesky riddles!) then please don't hesitate to give Jon a call on the usual office number, or you can email him directly to jon@lhm.org.uk.
