SOUTH Rugby News will be going on hold from today (4th July 2022) while I take maternity leave.

I’m so grateful for all of our supporters, subscribers and patrons.

Your financial support has let us cover all the administrative costs of running a hyperlocal paper, and your story suggestions and tip-offs have kept the news stories flowing.

For those of you with paying subscriptions: we’ll be organising pro-rated refunds within the next few days.

All of our stories will still be available for you to read at southrugbynews.co.uk, but we won’t be publishing anything new until next year.

It’s been a fantastic year and a half since we started and we hope to be back again in summer 2023.

Thank you for your support.
