I have just had a major anxiety attack brought on by Warminster journal! They have made any publicity with them impossible throughout my Brave the Shave campaign to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support & entirely avoided doing any work themselves. They have misled and lied to me. I would like to give you the whole story. I am flabbergasted and now a tearful wreck.
As a warning to locals, if you are looking for any local publicity for a charitable cause and can’t write it all up yourself, because you are not a reporter, don’t bother with them. Without paying out a load of money, they won’t do anything before the event to raise awareness. They won’t attend, not even to take photos (& if they say they will they just don’t turn up & deny saying they would later) They won’t write the article and then they will charge you if you put a link to where people can donate! They put obstacles at every step, even when you try to give them the event photos YOU HAVE ON THEIR BEHALF, as requested ! And the ‘excuses’ were risible. “Community” paper my arse !
