A NEW magazine with a difference is being launched in North
Solihull
Hybrid’s slogan is “by young people, for young people”, with
the articles and features provided by local students.
In the first edition there are articles offering advice to
job hunters, suggestions for school leavers and a “survival guide” for people going
to their first music festival.
Also inside is a piece of creative writing by Siana-Rose Crawford, a Chelmsley Wood teenager and former CTC pupil who has recently
published her first novel.
The quarterly title, which will be available at local
schools, youth centres and other facilities, is run by the Ashram Housing
Association. It is hoped that future issues will feature photography, poetry
and even illustrations submitted by the hungry young newsteam.
Hybrid is edited by former journalist Simeon Bright, who
previously ran S.L Magazine - a youth magazine with content provided by local
sixth formers.
The magazine has its official launch at the Bosworth
Community Centre on Monday evening (May 12).
