Hello, I'm Joan Buchanan, the editor of the Falkirk Herald, and I'm here to tell you about
00:05
some of the stories that are making the headlines in our print edition, which is on sale now.
00:09
We laid this week on the news that Falkirk Council has written to tenants to say that
00:14
they are temporarily pausing non-emergency housing repairs. They say this will allow
00:18
their tradesmen to bring 350 empty properties back to habitable standards, reducing homelessness
00:25
and the housing waiting list. Ahead of the annual Strathcarn Hospice 10k run at the weekend,
00:32
a group of pupils from Kinnaird Primary School, who raised funds for the facility, tell us
00:37
what they thought of a visit to see inside. We've also details of the annual firework
00:42
display which is once again being held in Calendar Park. The two-week October school
00:48
break begins on Friday and we've lots of ideas on how to keep the youngsters entertained.

01:15
ground recently for a special presentation. As Falkirk Council revealed the new development
01:21

01:27
underway and some of them didn't meet community approval. We've also got lots of picture spreads
01:33
