May at Your Local Lincs
If you’ve taken a stroll along the River Slea recently, you may have noticed that the swans are nesting again by Cogglesford Watermill. This time last year they were the talk of the town, and possibly the most photographed swans in Lincolnshire, as five beautiful cygnets were born. Crowds of people observed them on their daily swims as the two parents escorted their young up and down the river (the cygnets often hitching a ride back to the nest on mum’s back). The front cover of our May edition is a photo taken last year by our editor Rich, and he’s looking forward to more photo opportunities this year.
Sticking with Cogglesford Watermill, in this month’s Let’s Talk Local, we chat to miller Robert Pratt (Bob the miller… can he mill it? Yes he can!) and this is an interview you can also watch on our YouTube channel where we allow him to talk at a greater length than we can fit in the magazine. You mean, you didn’t know we had a YouTube channel? Why, we are on a number of the socials: Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Make sure to subscribe or follow us over on those channels to keep up with even more things local while you’re waiting for your next magazine to arrive.
If you would like to release the inner swan of your business and be beautiful, elegant and confident as you cruise along the river of life, do be sure to get in touch with us to see what advertising in Your Local Lincs can do for you. We have a genuine passion to see your company grow, so don’t hesitate to get in touch via your preferred communication channel. Email, telephone, in person, and don’t forget those social media channels! So many of our advertisers come back to us to say what a difference their adverts make.
YOUR LOCAL LINCS TEAM
Winter Clothing Donations
The work of Lincolnshire Action Trust is focused on the care, resettlement and rehabilitation of prisoners and those at risk of offending, as well as the welfare of their families and dependents. A significant number are released homeless and many do not have adequate clothing. To be able to walk out with the right clothing makes a huge difference. Every piece of clothing that is donated is gratefully received by the men, who don't have the means to buy anything for themselves.
If you have any men's winter clothes, shoes or boots that you would be happy to donate, please bring them to YLL HQ: 11 Pride Court, Pride Parkway, Sleaford, NG34 8GL. We are open Monday to Thursday 10am - 2pm. The items must be clean and in a bag, box or container that you no longer need.
Help equip men for life on the outside. Thank you.
