Events the local

Dear Readers We hope you had a good April with lots of Bank Holiday family time or DIY! With another two Bank Holidays in May, there is still plenty of time to get those garden and house jobs done whilst maybe thinking about some lifestyle changes too. We have something for everyone here in the local Oracle this month so please do have a good look through.

We are featuring Music on the Hill weekend again this month, just in case you missed it last month. It is all for a good cause and great entertainment at the same time.

We are now covering 36,500 homes and businesses in this local area and always keen to help new or established businesses to grow with advertising or networking.

Whatever your requirement, please do give us a call for a no obligation chat.

We live and work locally to help you.

Have a great month.

Anna & Jane
