MAY 2017 Letter from the Editor Features Writer Lucy Payne Hiya Bucks’ ethos has always been to support independent businesses based in Buckinghamshire. With this in mind, we set off last weekend to visit Waddesdon Artisan Market. It has just re-opened for the 2017 season and we had a great time browsing the various stalls and chatting to Bucks business owners, including, of course, making many purchases. There are still some stalls available for hire if you are a Buckinghamshire producer that fancies promoting your products. It really is a great market, set in the beautiful grounds of Waddesdon Manor; have a look at my article on pages 32-34. There are many events taking place locally in May, with something to suit all tastes. From the Festival of Football in Flackwell Heath, to the Jadi Art Exhibition taking place in Beaconsfield’s newest fashion boutique, Madam Spotlight, to Bucks Open Studios and the Chilterns Walking Festival. There are too many to mention here so please have a browse through the pages of this month’s magazine and see what takes your fancy. If you can’t find something for you please take a look at our website which features all manner of things we haven’t got room for in the magazines. Over the last few years I have established fabulous links with all sorts of organisations in Buckinghamshire so add www.hiyabucks.com to your favourites and don’t miss out on useful local information. Wherever you find yourselves visiting this month stay safe, enjoy and relax in the sunshine. At the time of going to print we are on the verge of a hosepipe ban – I hope I am not tempting fate mentioning the sun!
