welcome to..West End Life
Hello and welcome, The West End Festival arrived along with the summer and what a wonderful Festival and summer we have had – we hope you enjoyed both as much as we have. The West End Festival highlights the uniqueness of the West end and in this issue we have a great feature about “The Hidden Lane” – what a treasure trove of great businesses and people. The magazine is packed full of ideas for things to do, things to learn, recipes to try and places to go. We hope you enjoy reading the magazine.
Best wishes
