The Medway Broadside will be launching at 3pm on Sunday 28 November at Poco Loco, Chatham, with an afternoon of live music, tapas and games. Issue One of the Broadside will be available at the event, so this is your first chance to read the Medway Town’s newest independent, ass-kicking volunteer-run news and culture publication.

The first issue features a wealth of incisive news reports, arts and music reviews, interviews, heritage features and sports writing put together by a team of talented volunteer writers. It’s the best of Medway, in print form, illustrated with photographs kindly donated by the gifted folks from the Medway Towns Flickr group.

The Medway Broadside is a community focused publication: anyone can write for them about anything related to the Medway Towns, so if you’re interested in contributing an article, or if you just want to pick up a copy of the first issue and some patatas bravas, come on down.
