BLOWING OUR OWN TRUMPET

Help us to improve

Chatterbox is recognised for the high standards of presentation which we have evolved. We recently won the Invitation Trophy (above) in the Cairngorms National Park & Nairn Media Awards. We are also very proud to boast that we have been chosen as Community Newspaper of the Year, 2008, in the Highlands & Islands Media Awards.
However, there is still plenty of room for improvement in our standards of presentation and the overall service which we give to the Community. As you may see, we are trying to make the magazine more interactive, so that more people can become involved and share the production workload.
(See our 'Contribute your item' page).
If you have any suggestions for ways of making Chatterbox better, please let us know.

Please contact any of our Committee Members for more information, or with your suggestions -
