The community magazine for Sleaford and surrounding villages
Your Local Lincs magazine is remaining open. The office and warehouse will operate an appointment service for delivery of booked leaflets to be dropped off. Sadly we can no longer receive any more rotary shoe boxes or mens’ clothes for rehabilitating ex-offenders. Distribution will continue as normal as we are an essential community service. We continue to adhere to strict Covid-19 Government guidelines. We are under constant review and should official guidelines change then we will respond accordingly.
Come rain or shine, we have something for everyone in this month’s issue. Perhaps you’re planning a staycation and looking for free days out? Our double page article on pages 18-19, is crammed full of ideas.
If you think you are too old to play football, think again, and consider joining Sleaford Snails walking football for the over 50's.
Young Army Cadets are required in Metheringham, and if you’re interested in local history, not only is there content on Metheringham RAF Museum, but our local Sleaford Museum have written about the wonderful Sleaford railway station. It's one of a kind apparently!

See you in September!

What Our Customer's Say
Advertising
I couldn’t be happier, I launched my new craft business with Local Lincs at the start of 2021, and within the first 3 months of adverting it generated direct custom that paid for the whole 12 month package!
I would definitely recommend a full page to help a customer understand what you offer as a business, as I found as a niche craft business it has been invaluable to help my customers understand better what I can offer, and even attract those who would not have thought of using my craft skills before.
The team at Local Lincs are fantastic and will help to identify best placement for your advertising, advise on font and picture sizes so that your advert can be seen. They will also advise the best advertising timings through the year so you can maximise your advertising package with them.
Every time I speak to customers they say they got my number from this magazine!
The advertising is working really well in the Local Lincs Magazine!
‘Your Local Lincs’ have provided an excellent service for the advertising of room hire in Sleaford Town Hall, which has resulted in an even greater take up of interest and potential bookings. We received outstanding communication from start to finish and will certainly be advertising through the publication in the future.
“I decided to advertise my new business venture with Your Local Lincs, after only a few months, I am in a position where I am looking to expand the business in order to fulfill all the business that I am receiving.”
“It’s the best place to advertise – I think it’s brilliant! I don’t advertise anywhere else!”
“As our main show room is not on the high street this publication acts as our shop window to the public.”
“We’ve advertised with Your Local Lincs since it first started and we have continued to find this the most successful form of advertising.”
“Advertising with Your Local Lincs pays for itself. People like to use a local tradesman and this is the best place to advertise in our area.”
Leaflets
“The leaflets really lifted up the profile of the tennis club to let people know we are here. Next time we’ll put a special offer on or ask people to bring in leaflet so we can gauge the response.”
“Our recent leafletting campaign with Your Local Lincs has been a great success, with many new PC Support customers and several businesses wanting new web sites. I will definitely be using Your Local Lincs to distrubute my leaflets next time”
Current Issue
Your Local Lincs Magazine is a high quality, glossy, compact magazine that bridges the gap between local newspapers and regional lifestyle magazines.
Printed in full colour throughout, it contains a range of interesting and relevant news and features about your local area. As well as providing a one-stop shop for useful information such as what’s on, community news and information.

Additionally, it provides suppliers of local goods and services with an affordable and effective means of advertising their services to the community. In turn our readers are encouraged to use retailers, suppliers and tradesmen from the local area, helping both the local economy and the environment in the process.
Our very competitive pricing enables local businesses to have a presence in a quality publication and to reach out to thousands of homes within a target area.
