News the local

Dear Readers

July seems to be another busy month for events and we have had some great new advertisers join us too! Please do have a flick through with your coffee and biscuits in the garden! Talking of events, Anna has been accepted to run the British 10K London Run in aid of The Bridge Trust in Tonbridge who support the local homeless. If you would like to sponsor Anna then you can find details on her Just Giving page. https://www.justgiving.com/Anna-Marshall4/ It will be a great London day out so why not take the family and give her a cheer.

Full details of all events can be seen on our online calendar along with the latest online version of the local Oracle just in case you want to direct a friend to certain advertisers or information. www.thelocaloracle.co.uk.

As the temperature rises towards the summer don’t forget the sun tan lotion for the family and please remember not to leave any dogs in the car without a window open and water.

Have a great month!

Anna & Jane
