Have you ever wondered why it is that Great Missenden, Prestwood and the surrounding villages have little or no coverage in the local press? It can't be because nothing happens here - we have over 10000 residents, well over 500 businesses, close to 50 clubs, societies, schools and other community organisations. So why the media vacuum? Well, frankly, the huge media organisations that run the Free Press, Herald and the Bucks Exaggerator aren't interested in us because their focii are Wycombe, Aylesbury and Chesham. So that's it then, we should just accept it. Or should we? Well, no actually: in the not-too-distant future you will receive the first edition of a new community newspaper called The Source and it will focus on the HP16 area with news and views, comments and articles from your neighbourhood. It will cover the things that interest you as a local resident and, more importantly, it will contain a section just about business in this area - and that's where you come in: if you want to write an article about your business, or about a topic that affects you as a local business person, please contact Colin Veysey or Stuart Jones (both members of this forum). This is a real opportunity for us to shape the community as well as to generate some more business for each other, so let's exploit it!
