East Kent Mercury

Trusted by you since 1865

The Mercury has survived intense competition, Hitler's bombs, takeovers and strikes since its launch in 1865. Yet it continues to be delivered to several thousand homes in Deal, Sandwich, Dover and neighbouring villages.

We value our readers and customers for their loyalty and support and try to meet their expectations by bringing the best quality newspapers in the marketplace week-in, week-out.

We believe in giving local people a voice and try to reflect on every aspect of life in the area. Our editorial staff operate independently and we aim to ensure that everything we do is balanced, neutral and representative. We pride ourselves on making sure that everything we do is checked, verified and true.
