Click here to visit our online organisation directory for more information on our local clubs and societies.
Do you have an event you would like to promote? Simply email your events to hello@thelistingmagazine.co.uk and it will be included online and in our printed magazines in the month of the event (subject to space and other terms.)
If you wanted your event to really stand out, you might also like to consider running an advert in the magazine too, or possibly consider our door-to-door leaflet delivery service. Discounted advertising rates are given for charity and not for profit organisations.
