Re our 10,000 4 times a year NEWSLETTERS to go out to the public.

We find that to put in letterboxes they may get throw out as JUNK MAIL so we try to get them in though out our huge city e g Shops, Businesses, Take Away, Churches, Council Offices, Markets Service Stations etc. Just anywhere there is a counter or noticeboard, We still have many areas not being covered grrrr

So this is where you might like to HELP US , when you are shopping, you could ask to put a couple on the counter, they are very accepting that way , we can then cover the whole city that would be just marvellous .
