Philip Evans and Karen Sheppard, joint MDs of these Tindle's London Weekly News Group, said they were delighted with this decision. It followed a series of meetings with Council officials.
“This was good news for the local press”, said Philip. “It is unusual that the paper, that was re-born only six months ago, although first established in l883, should win such a prestigious contract. Two more editions for Hammersmith and Shepherd’s Bush are being launched underlying our commitment to London.”
