News the local

Dear Readers It seems a little strange saying this as we go to print in December but Happy New Year!

With both of us celebrating BIG birthdays at this time and the Oracle turning 13 years old in February, we have a lot going on. Last year we started a new edition in Sevenoaks and we are planning some more exciting changes/improvements in 2016.

If you are a new business or new to the area then we would love to help you promote your services in the local area. Please just give us a call.

Each edition can be found on our website along with more details of advertisers by category and we have a calendar with many exciting weekly and monthly events. www.thelocaloracle.co.uk Anna & Jane
