"As a parent, I was always keen to get my hands on my son’s copy of the Primary Times to help us plan things to do during the school holidays. Now as an advertiser, I know that the Primary Times helps our organisation reach our target market, promoting family activities that will drive footfall to the town centre, ultimately benefitting our local businesses. It’s a great way to ensure just one advert can reach many people, and we have had feedback from our event visitors who tell us that they saw our advert in the Primary Times! We would highly recommend Linsey and the team at Primary Times."
