<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The stories include a preview of the school play ‘Our Day Out’; a report on the battle to save Waltham Forest’s libraries, accompanied by an insightful interview with Frederick Bremer’s very own librarian; and, most sensationally of all, a news package on the regeneration of Walthamstow Town Centre, which includes exclusive comments from a member of Waltham Forest Council, as well as the thoughts of a local resident.</span> <o:p></o:p></span></div>
