Dear Residents and Businesses A warm welcome to your February edition of Eden Local! No opening editorial would be complete without thanking those who have contributed. I have been overwhelmed by the number of new businesses signing up. This month is no exception, with Northern Pet & Equestrian, Hearth & Home, Salsa Bistro, Brunswick Deli, Murray Electricals of Penrith, Witt Woo Photography and Penrith Golf Club. These businesses all appear on the main pages of the publication and many new businesses have signed up to our newly launched CA Business classification, which can be found on pages 28 and 29. A huge thank you to our existing businesses too for their continued support. Passing the baton, Sam has been busy collating stories, with some new features this month, which we plan on running throughout the year. My thanks to Martin Cowen, for bringing us up to date with the History of Brough on pages 20 and 21, in what will be a regular feature on Eden Valley villages and towns. My thanks to Nick Jones at the Watermill in Little Salkeld, who will be helping me to raise the profile of local producers on a regular basis. Details of this can be found on page 18. After a year of collating many articles and working with so many local businesses, I now have some Eden Local businesses presenting themselves. And why not? My thanks to Nick Miller at Eden Estate Agents (pages 12 & 13) for having a crack at this; to Jonny Miller at Full Circle Accountancy ( Page 7) for his regular contribution and enthusiasm; to Nick and Shirley at Sandwells (page 22) and to Alan Smyth at Walkers Funeral Directors (pages 8 & 9). Have I missed any one? Probably. Putting articles and advertising together can be fun. It shouldn’t be a chore and from the feedback we receive, this seems to be coming through. We aim to present positive stories from positive people. I’ve always said that if you have a bad day, just remember it can only last a day! My thanks to photographers Paul from Witt-Woo in Appleby and Donna of DMR, based here in Penrith for helping with the presentation of businesses. Over 300 words on thanking people! I almost forgot to thank John, who is the number one supporter of Eden Local. I cannot thank John enough for all his support and he has also convinced me to finally have a crack at golf, but not at the weekends. This will be a story in itself! So this month we have new features, more for you to read and in a weeks time you will also receive your first copy of the Eden Valley CA Business Directory through your

door. This is going out to just under 26,000 homes and businesses. Hold on to it as there are businesses in there that have never been seen in print let alone in colour. Now with so much going on and the CA Directory arriving through your door, are there any more ideas to come out of the Eden Local bag? The answer is on page 26! Lee Quinn
