Dear Readers We hope you are all keeping safe and managing to get through this tough time. Please do keep in contact with those around you and make sure they are ok as well as lifting their spirits. You just never know what difference you might make to someone’s day. Suite 159, 80 Churchill Square Business Centre, Kings Hill, West Malling, Kent ME19 4YU Jane Accounts/Sales m: 07912 878830 t: 01732 521494 Anna Artwork/Sales m: 07939 248983 t: 01732 795777 info@thelocaloracle.co.uk www.thelocaloracle.co.uk Cut off dates for advertising in the March 2021 editions are: • Maidstone 20th February • Malling 15th February • Tonbridge 20th February
We had really hoped we would be further down the line and we would be in a position to distribute our 17th birthday February edition but, whilst the numbers of infections are falling, we have chosen to do what we feel is right, and keep our distributors safe and off the streets. We are crossing our fingers and toes that things will change in the next few weeks and it will be safe enough to distribute a printed copy in March. You can find some new advertisers here in the online editions and we will also be sharing information on our social media pages which can easily be found.... facebook.com/thelocaloracle or Twitter.com/ thelocaloracle. Thank you for bearing with us. All the best
