Forum News serves the local community and other Forum visitors, not only with a wide range of newspapers and magazines, but also a diverse range of other convenience products.

Run by David and Noelle Kirwin, together with Rachel Crawley their manageress, they will be familiar faces to many people who recognise them from their other business in the indoor food hall in the town centre.

They have a wealth of business experience, with David reaching the pinnacle of retailing in June 2003 being voted the leader of his industry association, representing some 20,000 retailers in the country - the largest representative organisation in Europe.

The Forum therefore benefits from having the best newsagent in the country running its shop! The shop provides a convenience element to its customers, with food, drink and snack items, ATM cash machine and the National Lottery.

The news and magazine selection is supported by a wealth of knowledge in their titles.There is no title printed or available in the United Kingdom which they cannot get for customers. They are supplied by W.H.Smith wholesale.and can also advise customers how to send magazines abroad or inland with their wrap system.

From a postage stamp, stationery, sandwiches, crisps, soft drinks, ice cream, confectionary and medicines to household cleaning items - the shop is a hidden gem and well worth a visit.
