Dear reader,
We are living in unprecedented, tumultuous times where uncertainty abounds.
In the midst of the turmoil we are all searching for comfort and solace. Such reassurance can often be found in the familiar.
I believe that the Wishaw Press, with its 150-year history as the trusted source of all news in our community, offers such familiarity.
For generations we have been moved and amazed by the achievements and resilience of our incredible residents. No other news source can provide such a unique insight into local life.
That is why I want to assure you that we will endeavour, now more than ever, to keep you abreast and informed of everything that is happening across our area in the coming weeks and months.
And by that I do not mean just the sadness and loss which, tragically at this point, seems inevitable. But also the uplifting stories of our local heroes. The inspirational individuals, whose selfless acts during these trying times will embody what it means to come from Wishaw, Shotts, Motherwell and their surrounding villages.
To help us continue to be that constant in your life, we need your support. Your loyalty to the Wishaw Press is greatly appreciated by us all and will never be taken for granted. Now, we need it more than ever.
In the coming weeks, when life turns increasingly inward and spirits will undoubtedly need raised, please help us to help you, and remember to pick up a copy of your favourite local paper.
