IT is fitting that news of both the A1 upgrade and the A64 gap closure should come in Local Newspaper Week. These are two examples of how the campaigning Evening Press makes a difference.
As the feature on this page illustrates, our campaigns vary in scale and scope. Elsewhere in the paper, we carry news about two other issues we have sought to highlight: the problem of hospital bed blocking, and the plight of Ian Stillman.
These causes are very different, but they have one crucial thing in common. They are important to our readers.
