JOIN our reader panel and make your voice heard.

Here at the Lancashire Telegraph, we never forget that this is your newspaper.

Through our local news stories and features, we endeavour to be a vital part of the community, and bring East Lancashire people relevant content that informs and affects their lives.

Because ultimately the paper is written and produced for you, we value your opinion highly.

So, we would like to give you an opportunity to have your say by joining our new Reader Panel.

As a panellist, you and other readers will be given a voice to tell us exactly what you think about the content in the newspaper, both the editorial and advertising, by answering short online questionnaires.

How do you rate certain stories? What do you think of the design, the look, the photographs? What about the adverts?

Which are attractive, well designed, effective, and which ones are an unwelcome distraction?

By joining the panel and giving your opinion you can directly contribute to the development and success of your local newspaper, and ensure we produce the best possible editorial content based on what local people want, in conjunction with effective, useful advertising from our commercial partners.

We hope this idea appeals to you. If it does, joining the panel is easy.

Simply click here and follow the simple steps to sign up. You will also find more information there about the panel and how it works.

Once you have registered you will be contacted via email when the first questionnaire is ready. Simple!

What’s more, as a thank you, we’ll enter you into a prize draw every time you complete a survey and you could win vouchers and other prizes.

Thank you for taking the time to read about our new Reader Panel, and thank you, as always, for your valued readership.
