Welcome to Our October Issue
Hello and welcome to our October issue! Where exactly did summer go?
For those of you who are scratching your head and wondering how this year is going so quickly, DO NOT WORRY! We promise – the only ‘C-word’ we’ll be mentioning in this edition is Wrexham’s City of Culture Bid and the plan to make Wrexham ‘The world’s most playful place’. All you need to know about the bid for 2029 is on Pages 16–19.
🏛️ A Museum of Two Halves: The Football Museum of Wales
We were thrilled to have had a sneak preview of the Football Museum of Wales and Wrexham Museum just before it opened – a great attraction for Wrexham. We have the lowdown on why it’s the perfect blend of local history, heritage and, of course, football. See Page 28.
👓 Talk of the Town: Eyecadia
We also meet the fabulous Kerry from Eyecadia as she celebrates her third year in business, providing bespoke eyewear to the masses! This month’s Talk of the Town feature on Page 12 discovers the unique, personalised process used to provide perfect, bespoke eyewear for every customer.
🥾 Shorter Days, Same Adventures: Outdoors With Adam
