Dear Reader
Suite 159, 80 Churchill Square Business Centre, Kings Hill, West Malling, Kent ME19 4YU Jane Accounts/Sales m: 07912 878830 t: 01732 525805 Anna Artwork/Sales m: 07939 248983 t: 01732 525805 info@thelocaloracle.co.uk www.thelocaloracle.co.uk Cut off dates for advertising in the July editions are: - Malling - 15th June - Maidstone - 20th June - Tonbridge - 20th June
Firstly, we hope you and your families are keeping safe and well. None of us could have imagined what we have been going through and we must not forget that it is not over yet! Gradually though, many of us are getting back to work and we are getting to grips with a new ’normal’. To all of the essential key workers who continue to keep us safe, we know we speak for everyone when we say a massive THANK YOU. We all have different circumstances but we are certainly all in this together. Let’s continue to support each other to protect our community especially the vulnerable. After careful consideration and consultation with our advertisers and distributors, we decided to go ahead with a full printed edition this month. We have some great new advertisers and all of them are happy to work in a safe manner. The High Streets near you will gradually be opening so please give them your support. Please continue to take care of yourselves and follow the guidelines. Until next time …. please stay safe.
