so helpfull the people of wigan

I buy the Observer,but I have not got a clue about the reporter,so is that helpful

thanks fossil but what area of wigan

Greenfingers contact the newspaper and ask them where the reporter is delivered

done that and they say diferent areas including skem i dont know any who gets it now and y skem

We've not had it in Hindley - or at least my part of Hindley - for over a year!

thank you gideonfel c folks thats how easy it is

I get the reporter around hawkley hall area and to be brutally frank it's a total waste of bloody good trees, it's has thin as a slice boilded ham ,take the car sales out and there is bugger all in so don't panic if you don't ever get one...

I've not seen a Wigan Reporter for years. I thought it had gone extinct!

Reporter regularly every Friday in our area of Orrell Road near Abbey Lakes, and we buy the Observer each Wednesday.

We don't get it at the kitt green end of spring road and haven't done for at least 5 years

No Wigan Reporter delivered to our part of Ashton(Stubshaw Cross) but the observer on sale at all newsagents in and around the Ashton area.

Not had Wigan Reporter this year in Pemberton area and I stopped buying the Observer due to the cost.

I suggest you look at Wigan Local Life for your advertising.

bit expsensive to cover all of wigan

We get it in Standish.

We get it in Beech Hill i buy the Observer every week but its but its more or less the same as the evening post

The reporter is delivered in Newtown, I very often see them left outside of the house where the delivery boy/girl lives.

we don't get the 'Wigan Examiner' any more not since about 1960 was always out on a Tuesday when the Observer was a Friday paper.

All we seem to get round here is the Leigh Journal.Used to get the Leigh and Wigan reporters,but not done for some time now.

We haven't had a Wigan Reporter for four years.
Manor Park Ashton.

We get one every week in Hindley.

Not had the Wigan Reporter in our part of Hindley for years.Leigh Journal is delivered. I'm thinking of putting the blue bin by the front door so the lad can drop the Journal in save me a job.

Not delivered in Tunstall Lane Pemberton area for a while
We had a retired chap delivered it regular; then they asked him to go self employed,so he quit

That's why no one wants to deliver them if they are expected to go self employed.

not had one in winstanley for years, apparently they don't include us because we are 'an affluent area' ! the council know this yet they still publish local announcements which affect our area in the reporter even though they know we don't get it !

never thought of that

We haven't had one in Lower Ince for a good few years. One of my children was interested in delivering it in our area and left their details, but they never got back to us.

Never had one in the 8 years I've lived on Worsley Hall

Odd times we get one through the door on Sunday afternoon in Lowbank Road Ashton.

If you look on www.abc.org.uk, and then search on Wigan Reporter it will tell you that at the last declared VFD audit in 2013, the distribution was just over 43,000. The last declared ABC audit for the Observer is just over 11,500.

However, the two papers have now pulled out of the ABC's audit process, so your guess is as good as mine what the actual figures now are and why they have pulled out of an accepted industry wide audit process. It wasn't that long ago that the VFD for the Reporter was over 78,000.

Greenfingers - come and have a chat with us at our Orrell office, but before you come, call a couple of advertisers in our Home Services and also our Garden Services and ask them what Local Life does for their businesses - always the best way.
