Meet your editor

My name is Amy Graham, I am a local mum of 2. Isla is 8 going on 18 and Louie is 5.
Sophie Halford started Raring2go! in 2008 and I took over in 2012 as I wanted to continue this magazine as a service to the Tynedale area and also as a way of earning a small income whilst still being able to work around family life.
I went to school in Tynedale and worked at the Hexham Courant for 7 years so I have a strong understanding of the area and since having Isla I can connect with parents so I hope that you are finding Raring2go! to be a useful resource when planning your family days out, but if there is anything you would like to see included in the next issue then please feel free to contact me. I welcome your feedback and recommendations.
If you would like to get involved and either advertise in or distribute Raring2go! in Northumberland then please feel free to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you and I hope you enjoy the magazine!
If you haven’t received a copy of the latest edition then this can be viewed on the website or picked up at your local library or Sure Start Children’s Centres.
