EVERYONE at the Border Telegraph is grateful for the support of readers, contributors and advertisers during this challenging year.
For the past nine months, many words have been devoted to the coronavirus pandemic – the most significant global event since the Second World War.
According to Public Health Scotland statistics, the Borders has suffered more than 50 virus-related deaths. Our deepest sympathies go out to those families who have lost loved ones.
Next year, we hope, the Borders will see better times.
We would like to wish you a safe Hogmanay and all the very best for 2021 – we look forward to reporting on your successes.
Andrew McQuarrie (editor), Callum Hodgson, Isabelle Truscott and Mike Thomson
