Hello, and welcome to the August 2025 issue
Welcome back to your local news outlet, with a new eco-friendly production! We’re proud to share that Wave is now a carbon balanced print publication, thanks to our fantastic printers at Northend. You’ll now see a Carbon Balanced Print icon in every issue – a small but meaningful step as we continue to grow Wave as a community with the environment in mind.
It’s been a summer packed with events, with Olive Lane coming into its own as a great space for social gatherings. From live shows and market stalls to children’s activities and outdoor dining, it’s been brilliant to see so many residents making use of these new communal areas. And there’s plenty more to come! Don’t forget to check out the local community council and Harworth updates in this issue for details on what’s coming up locally, plus events from other brilliant community groups nearby.
We’ve got a special guest in our film reviews section this month – 6-year-old Waverley resident Eponine, who’s sharing her thoughts on some family favourites! If you or someone you know would like to be featured in a future edition, please get in touch. We’re always on the lookout for community voices, events, and stories to share – we are here for everyone.
A huge thank you to all the advertisers and contributors who helped make this one of our biggest issues yet. We’ve had lots of new businesses join us this month, and it’s been great to see such strong support for Wave in the wider community.
Thanks for reading – and enjoy the latest issue.
