Deadlines & Distribution Dates

The copy deadlines and distribution dates are shown in the table below. The copy deadline is a final deadline for print ready artwork, so we ask that new customers who need adverts designed contact us a few days before the deadline. This is because it takes some time to create your advert and to get your approval of it.

We need details of community events at least a week before the deadline.
