A new year begins, and with it another chapter in the life of our village. The turning of the seasons reminds us how much we value the everyday connections that make this community what it is – familiar faces, shared events, and the quiet support we offer one another.

This magazine is one small way of keeping those connections alive: a place to share news, mark milestones, and reflect village life as it is lived. Whether you are closely involved in parish activities or simply enjoy knowing what is going on locally, we hope you will find something here that feels relevant and welcoming.

As the year unfolds, may it bring opportunities to gather, to look out for one another, and to strengthen the sense of belonging that makes Ridlington such a special place to call home.
