Welcome to the online version of JABA, our independent community newsletter


Produced by volunteers and funded entirely by advertising, the printed JABA is delivered to 2100 homes and businesses in the St James and Bartonsham area of Hereford, UK. We welcome your feedback, suggestions, letters and offers of help to make both the printed and online versions of JABA even more useful, fun and interesting. If you are able to help in any way, from writing copy to delivering, please let us know. All help is gratefully received as we feel, and you tell us, that JABA is playing a very useful role in our community and we want to keep it going. Some of the paper edition is featured on this site with additional features and news items as they occur. The site is updated every few days so please drop in regularly for the latest news, views and debate.
