As you know, our BUSINESS ADVERTISERS are all together, we have a HOME AND GARDEN section and then PERSONAL AND LEISURE. All advertisers have a category box at the back of the publication for quick reference and they can also be found on our website. There is limited space in the printed advert but some advertisers have added additional information on their webpage including before and after images to show their services, testimonials or a full list of services.

All editions can be found on our website each month if you can’t find your copy or wish to share it with someone else www.thelocaloracle.co.uk. We will be also be sharing information on our social media pages which can easily be found.... facebook.com/thelocaloracle or Twitter.com/
