Dear Readers, Welcome to the final Directory of 2021!

Allow yourself a moment amongst the festivities and read about the fantastic local businesses featured in this month’s Directory, as well as the Best Books To Gift This Christmas and some fun puzzles.

The Directories:

This December, we will be collecting reverse advent calendar boxes to donate to local families and food banks in need of additional food. During previous years we collected over 350 boxes, so it will be great to add to that figure and help our neighbours this winter... More info on how to get involved can be found below.

Clanfield & Horndean Edition Dist: 8,200 Cowplain Edition Dist: 7,500

On Friday 10 December, we will be getting involved with Christmas Jumper Day in aid of Save The Children, and we hope you will too! Simply make, borrow or buy a festive jumper, and wear it to work/school. You can find out more about fundraising, as well as other info regarding Christmas Jumper Day, here: www.christmasjumperday.org.

To make your festive celebrations even more special, we’ve provided a lovely Spiced Festive Biscuits recipe - just the thing to get you in the mood for Christmas! Don’t forget to look out for Barney, who will be hiding in four of the adverts this month.

If you find him, you’ll be in with a chance of winning a £50 cash prize.

Thank you for reading The Directory this year. From myself, and everyone else at The Directory Group, have a wonderful Christmas, and we’ll catch up with you in the New Year! th
