We are lucky enough to live in one of the most beautiful areas in the world and within an amazing community that has a rich history of characters, courage, hard work, and talent. The Community Advertiser aims to celebrate our community of the past, present and into the future.

This is YOUR local magazine where you can tell everyone about local news and events, as well as help keep everybody informed of community information.

Tell us all about clubs and organisations, concerts, car boot sales, coffee mornings, sales, exhibitions, sponsored and charitable events, games, open days, gala days, what's on and what's going on. Don't be shy! We hope to have articles on local history, local memories, and local people's lives. If your school or club is looking for something, then let us know - and we'll let everybody know.

This is the way for your local businesses to help your local charity, church or organisation let you know what's going on without it costing a fortune.
