How to Advertise

Adverts are for commercial businesses only - if you want to publicise a community event, see How to Submit

We carry a limited number of adverts in the newsletter.

These are small adverts on the last two pages of sixteen.

In months when the newsletter has twenty pages, the last three pages may contain adverts.

All adverts are currently printed in colour.

Adverts are also included in the web version - see the 'Local Business' webpages.
Please

Applying to Advertise

We will only advertise businesses approved by our Editorial Board.

The Editorial Board will consider each application in line with the overall objective of the newsletter - that it is of interest to the residents of Longhorsley.

This includes the suitability of and local support for the product or service.

At their discretion, the Editorial Board may take up references and check the qualifications of the applicant.

If the advertising space is over-committed, we will operate a rota.

New advertisers will always be included as soon as they are approved.

We will not guarantee that adverts are included every month.

Advertising revenue reduces the subsidy we get from Longhorsley Parish Council.
