Dear Readers We’re back at last!! Suite 159, 80 Churchill Square Business Centre, Kings Hill, West Malling, Kent ME19 4YU 01732 525805 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 May editions are: • Maidstone 20th April • Malling 15th April

Welcome to our March/April edition which marks the arrival of Spring. We hope you have remained safe and well over the past few months and are preparing for a better year than last! We have made some changes to our layout which we hope you will like and welcome any feedback. We have a few advertisers who are missing as they are still unable to work, but please do support the local Oracle advertisers whenever possible. Easter is around the corner along with some easing of lockdown restrictions so you might want to do some preparation around the house for later in the year when we can all get together. If you are looking for a particular service, all you need to do is go to thelocaloracle.co.uk and input the category you are looking for with your postcode to find the nearest advertiser to you. If there is a category you can’t find then do let us know and we will try and find one! All the best to you all and have a great month.
