JANUARY - MARCH
Welcome! To the winter edition of Vocalise.
A new year is an opportunity for change and personal growth. It marks the end of the old and is the threshold to new beginnings. Let us make the most of the opportunity it brings. As we move into 2022, we step with hope, inspiration and a surge of motivation to do better as well as wish better for our loved ones and community. We are a very small team of volunteers who manage to make Vocalise possible for distribution every season, whatever the weather. If you have any time to distribute, proofread, write articles, support local events and fundraising, social media, advertising or simply just want to volunteer and be part of our quirky little team please do get in touch with Julia, our project coordinator, via email: info@vocalisemagazine.org to find out more. We appreciate every bit of love, support and encouragement. I’d like to take this opportunity to wish you all love, light and good health for 2022. Vandna (Founding Director) & The Vocalise Team
