The Newsletter Archive

Since its inception in 1975, MEOTRA has produced regular newsletters delivered to all local residents.

Delve into the archive to discover local history and insights about the area. Amusingly, many of the gripes still hold true today (litter, dog mess, lack of volunteers and speeding cars), but some of the ideas for events and activities are definitely due for a comeback. MEOTRA pantomime anyone?!
