THE holiday edition of Youth News, the free Wigan Metro newspaper for young people, is out now.

Edition 12 includes articles on what's on in Leigh and Wigan, youth projects, an update on skateboarding, racial equality, and Naomi Yates writes about Moshers and Goths being human too.

The paper, published in conjunction with the Journal's sister paper, the Bolton Evening News, will be distributed to 26,000 members of the 11-21 Linc Discount and Information Card by post, and another 9,000 copies are available from local community centres, libraries and youth centres.

Contributions are wanted for the December edition and anyone who would like to attend the Young Reporters' Group should contact Andrea Smith on 01942 828515 for further details.
