STAY SAFE AND SUPPORT LOCAL

News the local

Dear Readers As the restrictions are gradually lifted and life is starting to feel a little normal, what a pleasure it is to see the shops and pubs open again. It has been a massive struggle for so many businesses in all areas, so if they have managed to keep going over the past year, then they certainly deserve to be supported.

Suite 159, 80 Churchill Square Business Centre, Kings Hill, West Malling, Kent ME19 4YU 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 June editions are:

We are pleased to say the majority of our advertisers have survived and we have even had a few new businesses join us so please do use as many as you can.

If we all stick to the current government guidelines and the numbers of infection stay low, we may be lucky enough to see the restuarants fully open again, in the middle of May, ready for Summer dining. Let’s help the local community and high streets become a safe hive of activity again and put the last year behind us.

If you are looking to do work in the house or garden, would like professional advice on something, have children at school age or need a hair or beauty treatment, then please flick through the following pages. We have something for everyone.

All editions with testimonials can be found on our website.

• Malling 15th May
