If you’re struggling for the perfect Christmas present this year, then why not give the gift of news with a subscription to the Kentish Gazette?

For just £4.99 a month, the recipient will have full access to a digital copy of our award-winning newspaper every week, as well as the ability to browse past editions.

They’ll also be able to download our IM News app, enjoying daily updates on local news and sports stories, national headlines from the Press Association, and interactive crossword and sudoku puzzles.

A subscription even allows users to peruse weekly editions of any other newspaper title within the Iliffe Media group, from the Kent Messenger in Maidstone to the Cambridge Independent.

Kentish Gazette editor Joe Walker said: “If you have a loved one who picks up the paper each week, or perhaps hasn’t been able to during the pandemic, then a subscription really could be the perfect present.

“You can read the Gazette each week on a tablet, mobile or desktop computer, and have access to daily stories on our app. There are so many different ways to absorb news these days, but the Covid pandemic has highlighted just how important it is to stay informed with accurate and well-researched local journalism.

“A subscription is a present that will last way beyond December 25, and is much better value than a pair of socks or a Lynx deodorant set, I promise.”

Subscribing is quick and easy. Visit www.subsaver.co.uk and select the IM News app to subscribe. The first month is free.

If you purchase a gift subscription, you’ll be emailed a unique subscriber number to redeem it on any device.
