If you're in Sheffield, we can deliver by hand, on foot, to any address in the city encircled by the blue line (and we're happy to gift-wrap books, if you like, at no extra cost). This might be useful for any last-minute Christmas orders (last day to order via this method is Tuesday 23 Dec).

Sometimes itโ€™s worth the risk โ€œWe will definitely bring proceedings for Defamation and Malicious Falsehood if you publish such complete and malicious lies.โ€

Well hereโ€™s another hero - the Sheffield Tribune, one of the Mill stable of independent news sites, had the courage to publish an important story despite legal threats..

The tide is turning Five years ago, we set out to change local journalism. It looks like itโ€™s starting to pay off

This week, The Tribune had some really heartening news.

On Thursday, they announced the shortlist for the British Journalism Awards in December in London.

In the local news category, not one, but two of the journalists nominated are working for our tiny team right here in Sheffield!
