Hello everyone,

 

COGNEWS continues to go from strength to strength with over 50 organisations now sending in their news regularly; an average of 3 daily posts and new lead stories for each segment at least once a week. We are thankful to all who contribute to our vibrant town. Sponsorship is starting to take shape, which is vital for our continued work, and we think the website is looking/performing better than ever.

 

That said, there will be some further category and style changes which will better help people navigate the online pages and enrich the publications. Email subscriptions are live, and we are starting to see the benefits of this. The print copy continues to be a challenge, with both the production and the distribution teams struggling the past few weeks due to a shortage of volunteers. We are currently addressing how we best reach our audiences in a cost-effective and timely way. Part of that rethink is the removal of many of the COGBOXES, which will soon be replaced with posters, surgeries, and workshops and member-led print. This will better connect the team to our town and enable the members to make money from COGNEWS, something which we always intended. This will not affect the sponsored copies, and we will be seeking postal subscribers in earnest from the end of March.

 

Thank you for supporting our community group, and please continue to steer us towards a better town.

Lori Wood Williams

Editor, Cheadle Resident, Mum & Town Councillor
