Special offer to help with price rise

READERS will have noticed that the price of The Hinckley Times has increased to £1.30.

We realise this will be viewed by many as far from ideal, but it has remained a challenging time for newspapers in recent years and we need to raise our prices to meet many different overheads, including the cost of newsprint and distribution charges.

Hopefully many of our regular readers will want to take advantage of our latest subscription offer on pages 26 and 27. If used, this will actually see the cost of the paper decrease even given the latest price rise.

We’d like to thank everybody for their support and we aim to continue bringing the best possible coverage of all the local news.
