The community magazine for Sleaford and surrounding villages

January at Your Local Lincs

Happy New Year from all of us at YLL, your essential community magazine for Sleaford and surrounding villages! We’re sending you our best wishes for a healthy and prosperous 2025. As always, we’re hitting the year running, with the first magazine of the year already on its way to you, if it hasn’t landed already. We’ve got another slate of monthly magazines coming your way this year, full of great content, competitions, local events, recipes, puzzles, not to mention being your go-to directory of local tradespeople and businesses.January 2025 at Your Local Lincs Magazine

How good is your memory of last year? Think you can identify which of our 12 magazine covers went with which month? Head on over to our Articles pages and try out the Big YLL Quiz of the Year and test your memory. Some are pretty easy to work out, but some of them are tricky for even some of the people who work here! Let us know your result!

There’s so much more going on inside the magazine too, of course. It’s why our readers pick us up so much. In 2024 we featured many short stories and poems sent in by our readers, we explored some of the various celebration days throughout the year like International Lego Day and Mental Health Awareness Week, we gave away numerous cool prizes like hampers and meals at local restaurants, interviewed local celebrities, featured write-ups from budding reporters at a local school, visited our new printers in Bourne, and so much more. Where will 2025 take us? You’ll just have to pick us up and find out!

If you have a business or event of your own to advertise, and have wondered if YLL could work some magic for you, perhaps 2025 is the year to give us a go? At Your Local Lincs we have a genuine passion to see your company grow, as we have done for countless businesses for two whole decades now. Yes, this current January magazine completes 20 years of YLL coming through letterboxes in the Sleaford area. If you’d like to explore advertising in our publication, don’t hesitate to get in touch via your preferred communication channel. So many of our advertisers come back to us to say what a difference their adverts make.

Have a great start to the year and we'll see you next time!

What Our Customers Say

Advertising

We’ve had the pleasure of working with Your Local Lincs for a couple of years now, and it’s been an absolute delight! Visitors to the mill frequently mention they found us in the magazine.

Rich and the team are great to work with and often pop along to our events to support us and take photos. Their professionalism, attention to detail and willingness to support local events and businesses are commendable, and truly appreciated.

From start to finish, they’ve demonstrated an understanding of our needs and consistently support us, bringing a level of passion and enthusiasm that is infectious.

Working with Your Local Lincs has been an enjoyable experience and we look forward to continuing our partnership in the future. Highly recommended!

Sleaford Town Council have been advertising with Your Local Lincs for approximately 8 years. We initially advertised to let people know about the rooms we had for hire at Sleaford Town Hall and this has progressed into us having a regular slot in the publication. We have a full news page every other month in Your Local Lincs and all our event posters are also published.

We definitely notice that residents of Sleaford and the surrounding villages are seeing what we publicise and we are also able to share the information on our social media pages using the magazine links on the Your Local Lincs website.

The publications each month are full of useful information and we would definitely recommend Your Local Lincs to anyone! The staff couldn’t be more helpful, friendly and communicative. What more could you wish for!

Charity in the Community

As your essential community magazine, our community is naturally at our heart, and what is at the heart of every community? Charity.

We've been reflecting on the various campaigns we've supported during our 20 years of producing magazines. There is much need in the world, so it should be no surprise that we have quite a list of charities that have featured on our pages over the years.

But what charity-related endeavours will we find on our pages in our 21st year? Is there something out there going on in our community that you would like us to know about? Whether you're a veteran organisation or an individual starting something new, we'd love to hear from you. Would you like us to give your charity some exposure? We're on the lookout for new philanthropic endeavours in our community and would love to hear about the worthy things going on around us.
