A Happy New Year to all our readers! It´s been an icy January, and February promises to be much the same, so what better way to spend these chilly evenings than by curling up with a copy of your favourite Newsletter?

We have an interesting variety of articles for you this month, including Hunters of Kinross scooping an award at the 20th World Championship Scotch Pie Awards, and ´Serving you Well´ focussing on Giacopazzi´s of Kinross, a store at the heart of the Kinross community which proudly stocks the Newsletter.

If you have young children, then good, affordable childcare may well be high on your list of priorities. We take an in-depth look at some of the options available for free and private childcare around Kinross-shire, including information for anyone who may be considering childcare as a career. Pick up a copy of your February Newsletter to find out more.

Also this month we have an update from Jo Middlemiss on the important work done by the Ethiopia Medical Project, helping women in Africa with donations generously given by the people of Kinross-shire. Read all about the successes of Jo and her colleagues, in your Newsletter.

As ever, you´ll also find our usual mix of councillors´ reports, local and community news, views, sport and features. The Newsletter is your essential guide to what´s happening in and around Kinross-shire, so don´t miss out on the fun - make sure you get your copy!
