Editor's letter

Valery McConnell - Editor, Yours magazine

Want to know how important you are? Well, one in three grandmothers now provides regular childcare for her grandchildren and nearly half help out often. Which means the summer holidays can prove a big challenge!

That’s why we’ve put together our School Holiday Handbook for grans – packed with ideas to keep them

amused in all weathers. And it includes Days Out vouchers worth £200, to help your budget go further. 

Our cover star, Lynda Bellingham (60) is in no doubt how vital her generation is to the country: ‘Women my age are important, she says. ‘Our take on life, our experience are desperately needed.’  And having just got married for the third time – Lynda feels her life has never been better.

In issue 35 we exposed the scandal of vulnerable patients with dementia being treated inappropriately with anti-psychotic drugs – often with horrific side effects.

We told you the story of Lyn Ramsey’s husband David, who was left with devastating muscular problems which he never recovered form before his death.

Lyn’s experience evoked a strong response from Yours readers – and now the government has ordered a review into the whole practice. We are proud to have played a part in bringing about change.

See you next issue,

Valery McConnell, Editor
