Meet Lucy, the editor for Kidderminster and Stourbridge

Hello, I’m Lucy Richardson, the Editor for Raring2go! Kidderminster & Stourbridge. I have a daughter, Lily, and as a family, we’ve always enjoyed using Raring2go! to discover new places to visit and fresh ideas for things to do together.
There is so much on offer for young children in our area, and Raring2go! is designed to make life easier for parents by bringing together information on local family-friendly activities, clubs, events, competitions and offers – all in one handy, easy-to-read magazine that goes home through local schools.
This website supports the magazine with even more information. I’m always adding new events to the online What’s On calendar, so it’s worth checking back regularly. You can also follow me on social media for the very latest updates and reminders (links below).
I’ve been enjoying this role since Autumn 2022 and look forward to continuing it for many years to come.
Working with Raring2go!
Raring2go! is aimed at families of primary school age children, and is published 4 times a year, usually just before a school holiday. It’s handed out direct to families through the school book bags, plus through libraries and leisure centres. By working closely with our local community, the free family guide keeps parents informed, whilst supporting local businesses.
Raring2go! is created specifically for our local area and is therefore packed with relevant information for families with young children across Stourbridge, Amblecote, Brierley Hill, Hagley, Clent, Kidderminster, Stourport, and Bewdley. If you want to tell local families about your children’s activities, do get in touch with me at kidderminster@raring2go.co.uk and I will happily spread the word to over 15,000 young families.
Lucy Richardson, Editor
