The Dobcross Diary was started in 1999 by the Dobcross Village Community (DVC).  It exists to promote and support local clubs, societies, services and facilities and prides itself on being community-led rather than advert-driven.  A team of dedicated volunteers deliver paper copies in all weathers to EVERY home in Dobcross (around 900) FREE OF CHARGE.  It is compiled on a purely voluntary basis.  Production costs are met by kind donations from the villagers and from sponsors, with a few (limited) advertising opportunities.  Please contact me if you have any queries.
