Many of you were kind enough to tell us that you liked the first issue of the magazine, so we’ve kept the same format for this second edition. Most members will receive this and future issues in digital form – the paper copy we sent to you last time was a one-off to celebrate the launch of the magazine. Thank you to our readers who have contributed articles and photographs to this edition, making it a bigger publication this time. We hope you like it.

The theme of this issue is trees, and Anneke’s article about Welwyn Garden City’s trees is richly illustrated with glorious photos sent in by our readers.

Thank you to everyone who sent in pictures – we wish we’d had space to publish them all!
