We are a free publication with a simple ethos; to inform, entertain and above all provide the great City of London with the community voice that it deserves.
Featuring everything from breaking news and current affairs to entertainment ‘must sees’, shopping ‘must haves’ and tips and tricks for a peaceful mind body and soul, City Matters’ pages are packed with something for each of the thousands who call the City home, and the tens of thousands who commute to the heart of the Capital each and every day.
You’ll be able to pick up your copy on Wednesday each week at selected hotspots around the square mile. For a full list of location of our distribution points, click here.
