West Leeds Dispatch would like to wish all of our readers, community reporters, partners and supporters a Merry Christmas!
Between now and the New Year you may see less news from us than normal. This is to allow our team to take a much-needed break and to rest ready for that is sure to be a busy year ahead.
Next year is certainly going to be a busy one, as we start our new three-year National Lottery funding to train and support our community reporters and bring you the latest news and views from West Leeds.
You will still find new articles being published over the festive period.
This article is the 11,344th we’ve published since we formed in May 2015. Here’s to many more as we approach our tenth anniversary in 2025!
All the best from my family to yours.
