The Finstock News is the village newsletter. Its motto is "Of the village, by the village, for the village". It's a non-profit organisation run by volunteers, paid for by advertisers and serving the residents of Finstock, Fawler, Wilcote, Mt. Skippett and Finstock Heath since the year 2000. It is published bimonthly.
In 2020, a new award - Villager of the Year - was created by the Parish Council and given to the News’ valiant Editor of 20 years, Joy Murphy, on her retirement from the role. You can read about this in the December 2020 issue, below.
