Originally known as the Maidstone Telegraph, the award-winning Kent Messenger (Series) is available in four local editions serving Medway, Maidstone, Malling and the Weald and a County edition.
Consistently recognised as the most read local newspaper in Kent, Kent Messenger was named Kent Newspaper of the Year at the Kent Press & Broadcast Awards 2018 and Weekly Newspaper of the Year (above 20,000) at the Regional Press Awards 2016.
We believe in giving local people a voice and try to reflect on every aspect of life in the area.
