The Chronicle - in shops now!

It may be the holiday season but there's no rest for the hard working team at your favourite weekly newspaper.

Work continues apace, bringing you the latest news and community information from your area.

Our front page story reveals that every alleged breach of Northern Ireland’s safe access zones in the last 12 months occurred outside the Causeway Hospital, according to a Department of Health Report.

And, say officials, concerns have been registered over patients and members of the public feeling 'extremely traumatised' after witnessing anti-abortion protests.

Elsewhere, we have information on plans for Armed Forces Day celebrations in Coleraine next summer and all the latest news from Causeway Coast and Glens Council.

Our photographers have been busy, too, and this week's paper is full of Christmas swims, walks, parties and much more besides.

In sport, we reflect on Coleraine's Boxing Day defeat to Ballymena United and look ahead to the midweek clash against Linfield, who themselves are in something of a poor spell.

There is also a preview of Glenullin's All Ireland football semi-final and plenty of motorsport action besides.

So, to catch up on everything that's been happening on the north coast over the past week, pick up your copy today...
