WREKIN NEWS is Telford’s most established monthly magazine. It’s magazine format allows it to focus not only on the reader’s letters and nostalgia that it has become famous for but also to look forward to local events both in Shropshire and a wider base. It is circulated through key locations such as major supermarkets and on a wider base through over 100 smaller outlets.

It is the most popular and widely circulated monthly title and remains the first choice of readers throughout Telford.

The new magazine format has allowed Wrekin News to move with the times and cater for all levels of readership with its modern and lively format.

Barry leads the teamBarry Smith, the Sales Manager for Wrekin News, has worked in local publishing for many years and understands the needs of our advertisers. He is keen to get out and talk to his customers and can relate to their needs. Barry said: “Wrekin News is an exciting challenge for me. Working in Wellington, I can get round a lot of my customers by foot and can also schedule customers from a wider base very easily. I like to think that I understand the needs of my clients and I will always try to advise them about design, positioning and all things related to a successful advertising campaign.”
