The guidelines defining essential services during the Level-4 lockdown are continually being updated.

The Community Newspaper Association (CNA) is appealing against the decision to exclude non-daily publications from the definition of essential services. If the appeal is successful, we are ready to resume printing of our publications immediately.

Please also continue to contact us with your community news and stories and your advertising requirements during this period. We will all be working remotely, and will be ready to resume normal publication as soon as we can.

We thank you sincerely for all your support, encouragement and kindness during this difficult time.  

Stay safe, stay well and stay local!
